I bought these curtains in the 96" length to hang high and render elegant a short little stumpy window. I wanted something that would look opaque at night but would be sheer enough to let in lots of light during the day. They turned out to be exactly what I was looking for, and I am very happy with them. I will say that they were horribly wrinkled, so I spent probably over an hour ironing them. If they must be perfectly ironed for you, I recommend taking them to the dry cleaners to have them pressed.
