What to combine with short pleated skirts and what are they like?

Every woman has a short skirt or dress in her wardrobe. And fashionistas are unlikely to give up this style. After all, the mini emphasizes the beauty of slender legs and a thin waist like no other piece of clothing. Especially if it's a fluffy pleated miniskirt.

Pleated midi and maxi skirts are popular. And not every woman will wear a mini in a fold. After all, not everyone can boast of a figure on which a fluffy pleating will fit perfectly. It's no secret that a lot of folds at the waist greatly increase the volume. But the right cut will correct the flaws. Of the styles of short pleated skirts, the main ones are distinguished:

• with a complex cut;

• partially pleated;

• with a large fold;

• with a high waist;

• plain and multi-colored.

So that the hips do not visually increase, it is better if the pleated miniskirt expands towards the bottom edge.

The asymmetrical cut attracts attention and makes the look romantic and elegant. Half of the skirt on the left is midi length and the other half is mini. An unusual outfit requires a particularly solemn appearance.

The pleated skirt can be partially located in the most unexpected places. It is horizontal or vertical partial pleats. Horizontal pleats are located at the bottom of the hem. Vertical pleats are more complicated. The right part along the entire length is sewn in the form of pleats, and the left half is cut without folds, smooth.

Large pleats are relevant this season. The fold is wider than usual. Skirts with a large pleat resemble a school uniform from the Soviet era. With the right choice, the kit looks like a new burst of fashion.

The narrower the folds at the waist, the thinner the waist looks. Tight pleats at the waist, widening to the bottom edge of the pleats are the best fit for a pleated mini-skirt. High-waisted cut visually stretches the figure. The skirt seems to be quite long. It doesn't matter that the length went up, but the legs are given in all their glory.

For pleats, pleats need high-quality fabric so that the folds do not diverge on the figure. Well-smoothed folds maintain their shape and do not require special maintenance. Plisse is a multi-purpose wardrobe item. The fabric of the skirt determines its purpose:

• for a solemn exit - mesh, tulle, velvet, chiffon;

• summer version of pleating made of silk, cotton;

• insulated models made of leather, velvet, brocade;

• versatile skirts made of patterned fabric.

Transparent mesh, tulle, chiffon are put on an additional part of the skirt so that the transparent fabric does not shine through. They add splendor to the figure and romanticism to the image.

A navy blue pleated skirt made from thick woolen fabric evokes the image of a schoolgirl from the 70s. This again suggests that fashion is cyclical. Women's fashion successfully uses men's colors. For example, the “plaid” fabric in the pleated skirt resembles the fur of a stretched accordion.

In fashionable winter collections there are insulated models made of dense fabrics - velvet, leather, brocade. Pleated mini-skirts are made from fabrics of various fashionable colors. It is easy to find a skirt in your favorite color. Whether it's light pastels or dark shades of all colors. All shades of green are popular this summer: from light olive to dark emerald.

In the current season, designers offer pleated fabric "metallic". Noble colors of gold, silver, non-ferrous metal are used in pleated skirts. Stylists recommend wearing them with great care. In addition to the brilliant color, it visually expands the figure.

Pleated pleats are often sewn from fabric with an abstract geometric or floral pattern. Favorite "predatory" print will never go out of fashion. Velvet skirts "under the leopard" will not leave indifferent any fashionista.

Cropped fitted jackets, turtlenecks, T-shirts are suitable for sports and business style with a mini skirt. Denim jackets and bomber jackets are perfect for a sporty look. Check shirts, polka dot and striped blouses that are tucked in will work with high-waisted skirts.
