My version

I draft and sew for my own wardrobe. I'm petite, so I work from my own proportions.

I made this skirt in firm, dense jersey. I recommend firm stretch fabrics, such as stretch denim or firm jersey. I had no particular sewing difficulties with this version.

Before I cut the fabric, this skirt had to work with my white denim jacket, the ruffled blouse and the rest of my wardrobe. I wear it with different tops and shoes, from the airport to breakfast by the sea.
