Pleats are set by hand and pressed in, and the whole question with them is whether they are still there at the end of the night. These are set deep enough to survive a car, a dinner and a dance floor.
The waist is finished with a plain band so the eye goes to the pleating rather than to a seam competing with it.
Made to order in six weeks. The hem is set at the fitting, because a pleated skirt shortened afterwards loses the line at the bottom.
