Today, I have found a cute little skirt. It's called a cargo skirt but you decide.
This is the A-Line Belted Cargo Skirt by Akris punto. Price tag: $395.00. Details: button waist closure, zip fly, side seam pocket, belted waist, cotton/polyester, dry clean, 33-inches long. For closer view, check the Saks Fifth Avenue website.
What is the most surprising thing about the description? For me, it was the 33-inch length. I would believe 23". How about you? Let's see if we can find some patterns that might work.
This is New Look 6643. The skirt in this pattern gives a similar silhouette as the inspiration photo. You have the a-line silhouette, the button waist and zip fly, and the side entry pockets. The styling of the patch pocket and the belt are missing. The belt is easy. Here's a pattern that has the necessary styling:
This is Burda 6218. This is a pant pattern which has the styling details from the inspiration photo. The pockets and the belt.
I really would have like to find one pattern for this but couldn't. However, I would double-check the pattern stash and see what you have there. Both of these patterns offer options.
Happy Stitching!
