Yes pleated skirts are in style for 2024. They started making a comeback as a micro mini last year but are in style in so many lengths and variations this year.

Luckily, they’re a skirt trend that suits most body types. I personally prefer a midi as midi’s cut me off mid calf in an unflattering way and maxi’s are just too much material for my petite frame. Whatever, you’re preference there’s something for everyone with this 2024 skirt trend.

Take inspiration from the 2024 runway shows

Some of the pleated skirt trends for 2024 on the runways at on the celebrities in attendance included:

  • Gold pleated maxi skirts at Dell Scott runway show during New York Fashion Week.
  • Grey pleated midi skirts at Dior Haute Couture Fall/Winter.
  • Paris Haute Couture Week and Sandy Liang Spring ready-to-wear.
  • Low slung, micro minis at Miu Miu Ready to Wear Fall/Winter fashion show.
  • Grey pleated mini skirts as seen on Pixie Geldoff during Paris Fashion Week.
  • Black pleated skirts as seen on Nicola Peltz, Amelia Gray and Maria Bernad at Paris Fashion Week – Womenswear Fall Winter.

So what’s the best way to wear the pleated skirt trend in 2024. Besides just going for a style you love, if you’re torn on which one to get consider what you’re planning on wearing it with and whether it’s a summer or winter piece. I love one’s with belt loops so I can change up the look by changing the belt. It also doesn’t matter if it’s not a perfect fit then as I can use the belt to cinch it.

Obviously neutrals like black, white, grey or beige are the most versatile colors but green, blue, denim and pink are also fun color trends to play around with this look.
