Abstract
A fitting room () as a dressing room is adapted to have its entrance () opened and closed by drawing a curtain (). The curtain is suspended from the tip ends of beam members of a curtain suspension apparatus () mounted on a ceiling plate (). When closing the entrance (), the curtain suspension apparatus () can deploy the curtain () in such a manner as to spread it outwardly relative to the fitting room () with respect to the entrance (). The interior space closed with the curtain () can thus be enlarged when the curtain () is closed to use the fitting room (). When the curtain () is opened, the space that was occupied by the curtain () when it was closed can be used for other purposes.
