Anne Hathaway's fresh take on the pleated skirt is ushering this classic back into fashion

Anne Hathaway wearing a pleated skirt.

The pleated skirt has been a long-time hero when it comes to a capsule wardrobe, but sometimes it can feel a bit old-fashioned. Frumpy, even. However, when Anne Hathaway wore one as she graced the streets of New York City, playing her character Andy Sachs for The Devil Wears Prada 2, she looked effortlessly chic.

To look simple but stylish is a skill. And if you want your outfits to say 'oh, I just threw this on', while looking expertly dressed, it's all in the styling. What makes Anne's pleated skirt combination look so cool is everything else that she is wearing with it. And the wardrobe department for The Devil Wears Prada 2 has really excelled themselves, giving us all the inspiration for summer outfits for work.
