How To Wear Pleats To Look Trendy This Spring

One of the fashion trends that you should try to follow this spring is the trend of wearing pleats. Pleats will be really popular, so you should make sure to get yourself some pleated skirt or dress. Below, we have chosen several outfit ideas with such skirts and dresses to show you how you can style them and thus look trendy this spring. Check them out and choose which one is your favorite.

Pleated Skirts

Pleated skirts can be found in different styles and colors, so you will for sure find the right one for you. Pleats can somehow add bulk, so they are more appropriate for women with thinner bodies. Women with pear shape body should be careful when wearing pleats, and the attention shouldn’t be on the wider bottom half. And the ladies with inverted triangular shape who choose to wear pleated skirts, add some definition to the bottom half of the body, making them look more feminine. Pleated skirts can be combined with shirts, tank tops, sweaters, turtlenecks, graphic tees etc., which means that they can be part of versatile outfit combinations. Depending on the style of the skirt, you can wear them as part of your street style looks, office attire or night out outfit combos. Here are several street style looks from your favorite fashion bloggers that you can find as an inspiration of how to style pleated skirts this spring.

Pleated Dresses

Besides skirts, another way to wear pleats and thus make a statement is to choose a pleated dress. There are many such dresses to choose from, some of them casual, others more formal. Also, you may choose them to be one colored or with some interesting pattern. Just like with the skirts, you should choose the dress according to your body type. If you have full hips and thighs, you should choose fit and flare shapes that have inverted pleats down the middle, which flatter the hips instead of bulking them up. And if you have straight figure, you should look for a defined waist style with pleats running over the bust and hip areas and thus create the illusion of curves.  Here are several outfits with pleated dresses that you may love to copy.
