This is a great photo of this skirt – it shows the pleating a lot more clearly than the Burdastyle photo I think. Was it just me or was the pattern a little funny with the pleat at the end? I couldn’t quite figure out how/ if it was sewn into the seam etc. I’ll put my version up shortly, just need to overlock the hems!

looks fab! I’m wearing my Alexis skirt today, actually as I had a presentation at work and had to look respectable. ;) I love my pockets, though!

Hi Lindal
Make it up. It’s a great skirt – though I did leave out the pockets.
Hi Stephanie
This is the skirt “Alexis” available to download here under patterns. Or you can buy it from a Burda Pattern stockist – It Burda 7945 from the Summer 2007 Collection.
