drapes
Heavy window hangings
Drapes are heavy curtains, typically hanging in folds from a rod over a window.
The word is more common in American English, where it often suggests something more substantial or formal than simple curtains: She pulled the drapes closed against the afternoon sun.
Drapes can also refer to the way fabric hangs: the drapes of a toga.
