  1. Do the pleats really have to be that perfect? And did they stay like that?

  2. Yes, and yes (mostly). Because it was new silk, she had to fuss over the pleats a little more than if it was more broken in, but getting the pleats right is a big deal. The pleats were safety-pinned at the top, so they can't come completely undone, but they got a little messed up when I was climbing in and out of the taxis.
