Gathered or shirred table skirts are a popular choice due to
the simplicity and reasonable cost. A gathered or shirred
table skirt is a fabric drape drawn together by threads along
the top hem providing extra body to the skirt. A tighter
gather gives a table skirt a full, ruffled appearance.
 Knife Pleat
Knife pleats are one of the most common kinds of pleating
for table skirts. A knife pleat is a series of narrow, sharp
creases folded in the same direction. Unlike gathered table
skirts, knife pleats create smooth, precise lines down the
length of the skirt. The knife pleated table skirt is a classic
choice that is the least expensive of the pleated variety.

A box pleat table skirt is made from a sequence of back-to-back
knife pleats. Box pleated table skirting is a good
choice for a professional conference or business meeting.
The box pleats give the table a neat, tailored appearance.
Box pleats have a more pronounced projection than a
simple knife pleat, adding dimension and interest to
business or formal tables.
 French Box Pleat
Table skirting with French box pleats provide even more
volume than standard box pleats. French pleats are
narrower than regular box pleats, giving the bottom of the
table skirting a fuller appearance. French box pleats work
equally well in casual or elegant settings.

When budget and easy cleanup are a priority, consider
plastic table skirting. Vinyl fabric can be fashioned into
simple gathers or knife pleats. Vinyl table skirting is a
cost-effective way to dress tables for any occasion.

Metallic, tissue and raffia fringe skirts have a number of
imaginative uses. This kind of decorative fringe is a
charming substitute for table skirting and serves as a
festive wall border for special celebrations. Natural raffia
table skirting is perfect for a tropical or luau-themed
event. Raffia fringe works as hula table skirting, tiki bar
draping and funky wall decor.
