What are the elements that make this window treatment contemporary?

Beautiful draperies have grommets in the heading and panels are blocked with a contrasting fabric on the bottom third.  Sleek hardware in a nickel finish is very up to date and stylish. A tailored back valance in a v shape is also fresh and new, usually the valance is in front or on top of the draperies.
