A vertical blind structure includes a plurality of slats, each slat including an elongated, substantially rectangular, center panel having opposite longitudinal edges, a small thickness and a center longitudinal axis, each center panel being formed of a fabric structure including a plurality of weft yarns extending in the widthwise direction of the slat and a plurality of warp yarns which secure the weft yarns together and which extend in the lengthwise direction of the slat, first and second fringes formed at opposite longitudinal edges of each center panel, each fringe including a plurality of loose fibers which are formed as extensions of the weft yarns and which extend outwardly in the widthwise direction, past the outermost runs of the warp yarns, and which fan out from the longitudinal edges of the center panel such that the fringes have an outer longitudinal edge with a thickness greater than the thickness of the center panel, and a stiffening coating applied to only one side of each center panel; and a support assembly for rotatably supporting the slats in a substantially parallel, vertically oriented relation such that each slat can rotate about its center longitudinal axis.
