Ah - but it is not just a centre back box pleat - the 'small' pleats overlap behind it to maintain the thickness of the pleating.
I believe the originals have maybe three layers of fabric, due to them being 4 or 5 yards length - Lady Chrystel has at least 7 layers throughout the pleating.
Formidable!!
