Hi Sarah-Elizabeth there is a cosplay sewing site in Japan that has a floor-length mermaid/fishtail skirt pattern. I just remembered that you also need to download a free software package before you can open and print the patterns. Go to this page on the Burda Style website for the instructions from Juriko:
"www.burdastyle.com/forum/show_topic/6986".
If I have misspelled then it can be found in the forum topics "shorts for women" Please scroll to the last thread on the (I hope)first page, where there is a picture of a young girl and a quote about Narnia. She has the information on the free software used to open the pattern files. Most are .zip format. I hope I have all of the information you need. Cordially, Nehmah
