Pleating

Pleating techniques

We transform fabric through pleating techniques that give it rhythm, volume and structure. We produce Soleil (panel) pleating and parallel (yardage) pleating for garments, individual projects, designers and brands.

01

Soleil pleating — panel

It transforms fabric through rhythm, movement and volume.

Soleil pleating is a radial pleating technique in which the pleats open up gradually, like rays of the sun. The result is a fluid, elegant and spectacular effect, suited to garments that call for dynamism and personality.

We produce Soleil pleating on panels, with close attention to the uniformity of the pleats and to the behaviour of the fabric, so that the final piece drapes harmoniously and looks professionally finished.

Suitable for

  • Skirts
  • Dresses
  • Garment inserts and details
  • Collections and small-series production

02

Parallel pleating — yardage

Rhythm. Precision. Elegance.

We transform fabric through parallel pleating, for an orderly, fluid and carefully finished look.

The uniform pleats give the fabric structure and movement, and can become the starting point for skirts, dresses, garment details or custom design projects.

We work with individual clients as well as designers, ateliers and brands.

Suitable for

  • Skirts
  • Dresses
  • Garment details
  • Custom design projects
