English term or phrase: rolling pleats
Bonjour,

Savez-vous comment se traduit "rolling pleats" ?

Voici un peu de contexte :
"Mini-dress with deep rolling pleats fashioned from a single panel of fabric and a hand fixed satin belt at the waist"


Cordialement,

Sandrine.

plis ondulants


Explanation:
"Du charme avec cette robe évasée aux plis ondulants à l’encolure et à la base. C’est un modèle féminin qui vous mettra en valer. Pour danser vous serez royale. Elle se décline en parme et en noire pour des tailles jusqu’au 44."

Notes to answerer
Asker: Très bonne idée de passer par "roll" plutôt que "rolling". En revanche, pour "roll pleat", je trouve plutôt "pli roulé" ou "pli non repassé" dans des dictionnaires de la confection disponibles en ligne.
