Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.
I bought myself a rather nice check pleated skirt from Matalan. It was reduced from £15 to £10.50. I’ve been looking for a skirt that is similar to my kilts. However, in the product description it says the skirt is brown when it’s obvious it’s grey with black checks.
I see a very light brown background with medium brown
and black threads creating the 'plaid' pattern.
A very, Very nice Box-pleat skirt

It's difficult to install a lining in a pleated skirt. If you're worried,
it is best to wear a half slip underneath it.
Personally, I'ld take it in a heart beat
Just my $.02 worth

Haha! I was thinking that too. Just shows you people have different perceptions of colour. I personally see it as black and blue (which was the real colour) while some others see it has white and gold.
Anyway, glad you and others who replied like the skirt I bought. The product description to the skirt I bought says brown but in reality it’s a pale blueish grey with black stripes.
