Mastering the Art of Styling Your Pleated Skirt Tips:

  • Firstly, Embrace The Colour Contrast.
  • Secondly, Mix And Match The Fabrics.
  • Thirdly, Add Accessories.
  • Fourthly, Experiment With Different Layering.

Embrace The Colour Contrast: Playing up contrast is a key styling tip for a vibrant pleated skirt. For a striking look, pair your skirt with a shirt in a matching colour from your skirt. Like I did with a black t-shirt.

Pick out your favourite colour from the skirt and go with that. Try experimenting with all the different colours too. A plain top works perfectly.

Consider wearing your skirt with a fresh white top for a bright and cheery ensemble, for instance, if it has strong red and black hues. Match a colour for your shoes too.

Mix And Match The Fabrics: Try combining different textures to give your outfit depth and visual interest. For a cosier yet stylish look, wear your pleated skirt with a soft knit jumper; alternatively, go for a sleek silk top or plain t-shirt, like I have.

Don’t be scared to experiment with different materials to create a statement ensemble that grabs attention. How about a graphic t-shirt or a chunky knitted jumper? To achieve a balanced look when styling a pleated skirt, proportions must be considered. To define your waist and create a pleasing shape, pair your airy, voluminous skirt with a fitted top.

On the other hand, for a carefree and easygoing style, think about wearing your more fitted top with your skirt if it has a more streamlined silhouette.

Add Accessories: Don’t be afraid to accessorise to complete your pleated skirt combination; striking pieces may really make a statement.

Such as a striking belt, a statement necklace, or a set of earrings, can give your ensemble flair and individuality. I love wearing lightweight scarfs with the skirt too. I can easily make the look different by changing a scarf around.

Just bear in mind to draw attention to your skirt by selecting accessories that enhance rather than draw attention to your skirt by choosing accessories that complement rather than overpower your look.

Experiment With Different Layering: Layering is another fantastic way to style your colourful pleated skirt for different seasons and occasions. During colder months, layer a cosy sweater or jacket over your top for added warmth and style.

In warmer weather, opt for a lightweight cardigan or denim jacket for a casual yet chic look. Don’t be afraid to get creative with your layering to create unique and stylish outfits year-round.

    It’s so funny I came to look at this post after seeing it in my Blog feed (which I don’t look at very often) after I wondered what your pleated skirt looked like. To my surprise, I am wearing a striped sweater in these exact colours- I haven’t worn this sweater for at least 3 years so it was such a weird coincidence I happened to come and read this post on the same day!! You look lovely in the sweater and I love your tips for how to style it!
