Pleated Skirt
The pleated skirt is a classic wardrobe element that has gained popularity in various subcultures, including gothic and alternative fashion. It is characterized by regular, even pleats that add volume and dynamism. Initially associated with elegance and formality, in alternative fashion, it takes on modern, dark forms, perfectly fitting into the gothic aesthetic.
How it fits into gothic fashion
In gothic fashion, the pleated skirt gains a new dimension, combining traditional elegance with a dark atmosphere. Often made from heavier materials such as velvet or leather, it becomes a striking element of a style. Its structure harmonizes perfectly with gothic accessories like lace, studs, or metal accents. As a result, the pleated skirt becomes not only a practical but also an aesthetic choice for alternative fashion enthusiasts.
