Pretty pleats

What’s next to wear? Break into the in-between season in refreshing up-to-date fashion. Design and pattern come to play as pleats unfold the current style setting. As we transition into the “ber” months, global fashion gives a preview of the most important trends to come for the holidays. Fusing all these trends into one, the current presence of pleating has transcended into a wide range of must-have looks for the coming season.

From the trendy neo-gothic to oriental and nouveau punk to classic glam, pleats are echoing these statements and definitely are seamlessly pleased to stay. Adding touches to a simple piece, modern incantations present pieces with accent detailing as seen on a variety of embroidery and lace. Aside from the usual display of autumn colors, on the upfront is the resurgence of candy tones that will be top on the style meter and into this season’s wardrobes.

In the Philippines, local trendsetting brand Kikay is taking the spotlight on pleats. The fashion-forward name keeps ahead of the game in Manila’s retail landscape as it presents a wide range of dresses, skirts and tops, which are all on the radar. Definitely a current must-buy this season, this is one trend you wouldn’t want to miss.
