ABSTRACT:
A shower curtain for use with a bathtub comprises a main curtain suspendable from a curtain rod and a skirt attached to the main curtain along a horizontal seam at a level at least approximately five inches above the top of the front wall of the bathtub. The main curtain drapes downwardly to the outside of the tub so that the seam is located directly above the outer surface of tub front wall. The skirt drapes straight downwardly from the seam so that it is positioned outside of the tub, while the main curtain below the seam extends toward the inside of the tub, passing over the top of the tub front wall and then down into the tub. The weight of the skirt pulls downwardly on the main curtain along the seam, thereby tending to maintain the curtain generally co-planar with the skirt, draping to the outside of the bathtub. The invention shower curtain provide a shower enclosure with more usable width than has been available with prior shower curtains, and positions the skirt on the outside of the tub to present an aesthetically pleasing appearance without requiring the added expense of a separate, full length curtain liner.
