loved this pattern but thought the pocket in front might make me look a bit chunky…so I omitted the pocket, did the side panels on the bias and put a zipper in the back seam. I also finished all seams, including the hem and back slit with red bias tape… It’s a really comfy skirt and I love it! Wanted the vintage look…and I think I got it?!?

Hi, Love your Kasia. Those red buttons are divine with that material and style.

thanks :)
that’s what I was hoping for…when I saw the pattern I loved the skinniness of it…

Love the red details. It does have a great vintage feel to it, very 50’s movie star.
