Description
I wanted to make a little Summer skirt out of an African fabric I got a few days ago. To do so, I used the whole width of the fabric and made 6 inverted pleats out of it for the front. I did the same for the back and used an invisible zipper on one side.

African wax print fabric

love the whole outfit. pleated skirts always look too boxy to me, this one is just perfect.
