A sheer curtain with the dimensions of 55x96 inches is a window treatment specifically designed for spaces that require extra length. The standard 55-inch width is typical for a single curtain panel, but the 96-inch length makes it suitable for high-ceilinged rooms or for achieving a dramatic, "puddled" effect on the floor. This style not only adds a touch of luxury but can also make a room feel taller and more spacious by drawing the eye upward.
