The downward movement of the water in the shower creates downward movement in the air inside the shower area. Air flow causes low pressure and so the air pressure from outside the shower area is able to push the curtain inwards.

Why does a shower curtain move towards your body when you take a shower?
You can thank Mr. Bernoulli for this answer: As a fluid's velocity increases, its pressure decreases. (The term fluid includes liquids and gases.) The water spray moving through the air causes the air to move along with it. As the air and spray moves between your body and the curtain it needs to move faster because your body narrows its path. For the water and air to move faster, it must lose pressure. The pressure of the air on the other side of the curtain is unchanged so it pushes the curtain towards you. Try this: Take a piece of paper (to represent the curtain) and hold it near a wall or a cup (to represent you). Now, with a straw, blow through the gap between "you" and the "curtain". You'll see the same effect.
