As the new season approaches, a chic and timeless silhouette is emerging: the pleated skirt. After the era of mini-skirts and tennis skirts , it is now the turn of the long pleated skirt to conquer the hearts of fashionistas.
For this back-to-school season, the pleated skirt is reinvented in a long version, resolutely elegant and in tune with the times. Part of the “quiet luxury” trend, it embodies the perfect alliance between refinement and discretion. Seen on the catwalks of the fall-winter 2024/2025 shows, notably at Dior, Ami and Tommy Hilfiger, this iconic piece is making a strong comeback. More than just a trend, the long pleated skirt is asserting itself as an essential part of the back-to-school wardrobe, adding an ultra-chic and feminine touch to all outfits.
How to wear it?
With its sun pleat, characterized by tight pleats at the top that flare gracefully towards the bottom, the long pleated skirt brings fluidity and elegance to the silhouette. Versatile, it goes just as well with a shirt as with a blazer, thus adapting to all occasions. For a bold look, choose a patterned pleated skirt, paired with a plain top to balance the ensemble. For a more classic style, it goes wonderfully with kitten heel mules on the still mild days of the start of the school year, and pairs perfectly with leather boots when the temperatures drop.
The pleated skirt, popularized by Grace Kelly, is a classic that spans the ages. It is the ideal piece for a chic and timeless look, to be included without hesitation in your back-to-school wardrobe.
