Pleats

Article Abstract:

Pleats not only provide garments with a unique design element, they also add fullness as well as room to them. Pleats come in various styles, such as the box pleat, inverted, inverted pleat with a separate underlay, knife, sunray and accordion pleat. In pleating garments, it is important to consider the fabric's weight and its ability to hold a crisp crease.
