Sidonie is another addition to our collection of basic patterns. This simple A-line mini skirt is a quick project ideal for making your perfect little basic skirt that has been missing in your closet.

By jacket, do you mean the vest she is wearing? That is actually from Urban Outfitters.

You can give the skirt a lower waistline by making a muslin or a paper skirt and drawing on a new waistline with tailors chalk or pencil (respectively). Then take off the paper skirt or muslin and neaten it up. Then add seam allowances.
You can make a waistline facing by tracing the tops of the pattern pieces about 5 inches down.
Then you can just make the skirt as your would normally. Oh, and remember to use a shorter zip or to shorten the one you have.
Good luck! : )

I dont like how it sits so high on the waist. A low-waist option would be nice.

beautiful skirt. i will defienatly be looking into making this. the hot pink fabric is gorgeous and the pattern looks as if ti could easily be adapted for a more casual skirt.
