Permanent pleats are back in fashion.
Not sure if anyone of my generation will actually want to take this one up – just too reminiscent of school uniform in navy blue polyester.
Today’s school teachers however have probably got their fingers crossed that a new generation will see them as the absolute must-have, for they would certainly put an end to the modern school-girls belief that skirt waistbands must be rolled over to raise the hem to a dangerously distracting level of shortness. The amount of material in the pleats would have the result of producing a very ugly thick bulge around the waist.
Pictures showing us how to put the look together even include one of a model wearing sensible flat shoes & white ankle socks.
