  • Publication number: 20090049607
    Abstract: Ruffled or pleated fabrics have been commonly used as interior design elements many years to accentuate the aesthetic appearance of items such as dust ruffles, bed skirts, draperies, valances, and table skirts. The ruffles or pleats add volume to the design features, increasing their aesthetic appeal. However, due to age and wear, over time the ruffles or pleats lose their volumizing effect. A volumizing slip is provided, composed of a material stiffer than the existing fabric article. Thus, fulfillment of the long felt need for extending the usable life of design elements such as volumized dust ruffles, bed skirts, draperies, valances, and table skirts is provided.
