Goblet pleat curtains - similar to pinch pleats but gathered below the topper.
Pencil pleat curtains - pinch pleats done in very small sections which resemble pencils as a result.

Tab Top curtains - the topper uses tabs of fabric to allow the rod to pierce through.
Tie top curtains - the topper uses lengths of hemmed fabric to tie to the rod as a means to support.
