Table skirting is fabric used to decorate tables for events and occasions. There are different types of table skirting including gathered or shirred, which is fabric drawn together by threads; knife pleat, which has sharp narrow creases folded in the same direction; and box pleat, made from back-to-back knife pleats. Other options are plastic skirting for low cost, fringe for charm, and swag skirts that attach with clips to avoid flattening pleats.
