Folds in collections 2015-2016

The fact that pleats on suits and dresses will always be in demand, mystylex.techinfus.com/en/ already told... But some designers in the 2015-2016 season got so carried away by folds that they dedicated almost the entire collection to them. The folds on the products occupy the most honorable places so that they are immediately noticeable, just like journalists or editors of famous magazines when showing a collection.

A particularly honorable place where folds can show their best side is the skirt. And not because the skirt cannot be overlooked, the blouse, sleeves, collars with folds are no less attractive garments. And the fact is that when a girl walks, the folds on the skirt play and can show the fabric in its best possible way.

See the vibrant palette of fabrics shimmering or playing with golden fireworks, thanks to pleating at Alice Olivia or Balmain.

For some of us, folds are reminiscent of childhood due to the association of folds with school uniforms. Indeed, especially in Soviet times, girls' school dresses were often sewn with one-sided or bow folds. But even now, when these girls have grown up, they can wear an original dress or skirt with pleats, while looking elegant and sophisticated.

The folds can be ironed or not ironed, but they can be soft. You should choose the right fabric, taking into account what kind of folds you want to get on your product. Iron-on folds look better on dense and elastic, non-crease fabrics. Soft folds with dignity can take place on light, thin, easily draped fabrics.

Do not crease on very thick, stiff or fluffy fabrics. Such materials can only be obedient in the hands of an experienced designer, if, of course, he agrees to such feats.

Wrinkles in products, both when sewing and when leaving, require special attention. But this is a completely separate conversation ...
