The royal dress code is full of prohibitions and restrictions. The absence of a hat can bring Elizabeth II to white heat, what about miniskirts? Although, despite the righteous anger of the monarch, the princesses and duchesses allowed themselves this freedom: Princess Beatrice, Meghan Markle and even the excellent student Kate Middleton walked in short skirts. True, after struggling with gusts of wind, William’s wife learned a lesson and switched to more practical models. And it’s not just about the length: we’re talking about comfortable and eye-catching pleated pieces, a favorite in Princess Diana’s wardrobe.
Lady Dee could write a fashion guide on them – she managed to show off so many of these skirts to photographers. As a big fan of tennis, the Duchess of Wales often combined sports skirts with sweatshirts, and these casual looks became fashion history and are still being repeated. For formal receptions and walks, Diana chose a similar model, only elongated and with narrower pockets. This is not yet a small pleat, but it is no longer the wide “trapezoid” of a tennis skirt.
Now, a variation of this model with pleats that Lady Dee once replicated is regularly worn by Kate Middleton. Thanks to the small snags in the fabric, they fly beautifully when walking, while the duchess is almost in no danger of getting tangled like with airy minis.
But Kendall Jenner does not need these difficulties and prohibitions. The law is not written for street style stars, especially when extreme combinations and unexpected combinations are expected of them. The model already went out this summer in Princess Diana’s tennis skirt, but in combination with a crop top – why not? It’s a modern tribute to a fashion icon who predicted their popularity decades before the pleated trend. So, without a doubt, we decided to get a skirt with a small and wide pleat – it remains only to choose suitable options. We encourage you to address this issue as soon as possible!
