Denim Pleated Skirt

Pleated Denim Skirt — High-Waisted Mini with Belt Loops

Size Chart

Length is measured from the top of the waistband to the hem. Between two sizes, take the larger one.

Washed indigo denim with the pleats pressed in properly rather than gathered. A wide high waistband carries belt loops all the way round, deep box pleats fall from a smooth yoke so the denim stays flat over the hip before it swings, and the hem is left with a lightly frayed edge. The wash is uneven in the way good denim always is, lighter across the front and deepening at the seams.

How to Style a Denim Skirt

Denim takes whatever you give it, so a grey ribbed vest, a plain white tee, a fine knit tucked in — the skirt is doing the shape, the top just needs to stay close. Knee-high boots with white socks showing, or chunky trainers for something easier. Because the pleats hang from a smooth yoke rather than starting at the waistband, the denim sits flat across the widest part of the hip and the volume only begins below it, which makes this considerably easier to wear on fuller hips than an all-over pleat while still giving straighter frames real movement.

FAQ

How short is this pleated denim mini skirt?
It measures 15.7 inches on UK 8–10 up to 16.5 inches on UK 18, taken from the waistband. That sits mid-thigh on an average 5'6" frame, and because the pleats flare outward the skirt lifts more readily than a straight denim mini of the same length.

Do the pleats stay sharp?
Denim holds a pressed pleat far better than a light woven does, so the box pleats keep their definition through a full day. They soften gradually with wear and washing, which most people prefer to the crisp original.

Which size should I order?
Go by your waist measurement, since the waistband is the fitted part and the hip column includes the width of the pleats. There's no stretch to fall back on, so size up rather than down if you're between two rows.
