Pleating or pleating (from French plissée - “wrinkle”, from Latin plicāre - “crease”; Indo-European root plek ) [1] [2] - a decorative element of clothing in the form of small, mechanically pressed, unstitched folds, which can be both flat (lying) and protruding accordion (corrugation).
As a rule, pleated skirts are made straight and flared (“sun” or “sun”), often pleated frill is used to trim skirts (bottom), dresses or blouses (sleeves or collar). To perform pleating, approximately three times more matter is required than the width of the finished product [3] [4] .
