I’m a fan of putting a twist on a classic. This skirt is reminiscence of old Hollywood but with a modern flare. I also love Chinese brocade and damask and wanted to make a skirt worthy of its elegance. Skill Level: Intermediate to advanced sewer. Notions:
How to Guide: Get out a pad of paper to keep track of your measurements!
Pleat it!
Waist no space I like a 2 inch thick waist band, but you can go wider or thinner.
A window with a view
All the trimmings
Get prepped!
Now you have all the pieces of your skirt ready – it is time to get out your sewing machine! Keeping your pleats in their place
Putting the pieces together
Check point – try it on!
Zip it When applying an invisible zipper, it is done with the right side of the fabric facing up, unlike all other types of zipper applications.
Finishing touches
RSVP to that black-tie event, put on some bold lipstick and head out!
