    Question Pleat Depth Dynamics

    How does say a 2" pleat depth move/operate/fan differently than for example a 4" pleat depth? Why would one be preferred over another? If it's just the amount of material in the pleats that gives good 'swish' then wouldn't a shallow pleat with a small reveal work the same as a deep pleat with a wide reveal?
