The Stylist Magazine 'The Ripple Effect' editorial shows women a multitude of ways to embrace pleats in their wardrobes this summer season. Not only reserved for skirts (although the majority of the options do involve this particular clothing item), there are also pleated dresses and shirts thrown into the mix to demonstrate how this texture can liven up on outfit in different ways.
Shot by photography duo Jason Ell and Lizzie Franks, the Stylist Magazine 'The Ripple Effect' editorial appears in the most recent issue of the United Kingdom publication. It stars model Zen Sevastyanova, who was styled by fashion editor Alexandra Fullerton in pieces from the likes of Victoria Beckham, Emporio Armani, Marni and more.
