Pleats are top of our skirt cheat-sheet for autumn.

A host of laring folded styles swung down the A/W18

runways, some short with concertina pleats, some

knee length in more scholastic silhouettes. With kilts

clearly an inspiration, Max Mara creative director

Ian Griiths and Dior’s Maria Grazia Chiuri nodded to

rebellious punk icons and the protesting students

of the 1968 Paris riots, the leather details of their

folded styles adding a licker of deiance. Whether

you’re riing on rebellion, favour retro checks,

or have a mind for something more monochrome,

pleats are sure to keep you irmly in fashion’s fold.
