C.i are the trends, and there are the timeless. The case of the pleated skirt, a highlight of the mid-season that cyclically reappears in the wardrobes. The model to focus on inAutumn-Winter 2022/2023: the most classic ever. Black, long, chic: the must-have garment to enliven the looks of the period with a pinch of style.

Where we saw it
All the greatest stylists have proposed them on the catwalk for the cold season. And someone has even made her the protagonist of the collections of Haute Couturegiving it the title of elegant skirt that rightfully belongs to it: like Maria Grazia Chiuri for Dior. The must-have garment according to the designer: a long skirt at the ankles, light pleated wool, only slightly flared – a detail that makes it more refined than wheel models. Rigid just the right, so as to harmonize the silhouette rather than weigh it down: a problem at the base of most pleated skirts, brilliantly solved by the cut.
The dark shade then makes it perfect for autumn and winter weather, as well as the A line without any asymmetries – more trendy perhaps, but less wearable in everyday life. On the other hand, this was the cornerstone of New Look for the designer: even if the way to match it today differs from the traditional jacket Bar.
How to match the long pleated skirt in Autumn-Winter 2022/2023
Rather than in a strict business suit, the way to wear the long black pleated skirt this season is easier to carry. First of all, it goes perfectly with the clear nuances neutrals, such as beige and the like. There are two options for the top piece: either a short and tight jacket, to mimic the glorious past, but in brocade or embroidered for a romantic touch; or the simple daily substitute, a jacquard sweater of yesteryear. Perfect, a pullover or a turtleneck Fair Isle with the typical mountain chic motif, or even a braided knit: the important thing is to contrast the folds with a notable pattern.
On the feet, a pair of lace-up ankle boots for lovers of the retro look in coordinated with the top, as the Maison teaches; or alternatively, a model of minimal ankle boots in black or brown. The autumn outfit to copy that, literally, it is flawless.
