CSS-only folded ribbon

Create a cool Ribbon using one element and a few lines of code.

A CSS ribbon

.ribbon {
  --f: 10px; /* control the folded part*/
  --r: 15px; /* control the ribbon shape */
  
  position: absolute;
  top: 10px;
  background: #BD1550;
  border-bottom: var(--f) solid #0005;
}
.left {
  left: calc(-1*var(--f));
  border-right: var(--r) solid #0000;
  clip-path: 
    polygon(100% 0,0 0,0 calc(100% - var(--f)),var(--f) 100%,
      var(--f) calc(100% - var(--f)),100% calc(100% - var(--f)),
      calc(100% - var(--r)) calc(50% - var(--f)/2));
}
.right {
  right: calc(-1*var(--f));
  border-left: var(--r) solid #0000;
  clip-path: 
    polygon(0 0,100% 0,100% calc(100% - var(--f)),calc(100% - var(--f)) 100%,
      calc(100% - var(--f)) calc(100% - var(--f)),0 calc(100% - var(--f)),
      var(--r) calc(50% - var(--f)/2));
}
