Inspiration...Layered Skirt

 I found this skirt and was very intriqued.  Here is this simple little skirt:




This is the Layered Button-Front Wool-Blend Knee-Length Skirt by Prada.  Price tag: $3,150.00.  Details:  bandless waist, button-front closure, side slip pockets, chambray underskirt, wool blend outer skirt.

The price for the simple little skirt is astonishing.  Granted there are two layers.  Which comes to another intriqueing point - Why to two layers or skirts?   It caught my attention.  Now, for a pattern:


This is the Silhouettes Patterns  Vera's Skirt pattern.  It is a waistless button front straight skirt.  I do not know if there are pockets included with the pattern but it is easy enough to add.  

To get the look -

  • decide on length
  • pick the outside fabric and the inside fabric
  • the inside skirt will be a little taller and a little longer
  • make your skirts
I made that sound simple.  It might not be that simple.   The skirt pattern itself is fairly straight forward.  There is a sew along for this pattern here.

So, pick out a nice wool blend fabric and find a chambray in a color that suits you.  Hope you are inspired to create something wonderful.

Happy Stitching!
