    What is the reveal of the pleat? That, the sett size and your waste size will tell you how much you need.
    For example: If I have a 42 inch hip measurement and I have 21 inches of that in the pleats, with a one inch reveal, then I will need 21 pleats. If I were to half a half-inch reveal then that'd be 42 pleats. Make sense?

    Yeah.

    The waist measurement is 41". Sett is 6 and 3/8"

    I'm not sure on my reveal yet. I'd like around 1" but I'm flexable.

    So, if 1/2 my waist is in the pleats, that's 20 1/2". Reveal could be 1", so is that 20.5 pleats? Can't be that easy...
