Pleats

This fall pleats have taken over clothing racks at stores everywhere. So here at Runway2Hallway we scoured the stores to find our favorite pleated pieces. For a more casual take on pleating there is the AE Pleated T from American Eagle. Not only is it super comfortable, but AE T’s hold up well so you should be able to wear them next year. Also this particular T is versatile so you could even wear it in the spring if you wanted to. Also the pleating is subtle so it feels more casual. For something with a little more pleating there is the Kimichi Pleated Front Henley. I chose this top because it’s something you could dress up or down which means you’ll get a lot more wear out of it. To dress it up you could wear it with some slacks or dress pants and heels, or dress it down with jeans. Another great piece is the Pleated Woven Cami from Kira Plastinina. The reason I like this top is because you can layer it with sweaters and jackets, which lets you get more use out of it and more outfits. The final piece we found was the Flounce tbd Pleat Top (see top left). I liked this top because of its layers of pleating. Not to mention it comes in two different colors, so depending on which color you choose you can wear it more than one season. Weather you choose one of these pieces or one you found on your own, it’s all about pleats for fall.
