   Like another reviewer, I found the waistband too short. The inverted pleats are lovely however.

   Again I have not actually sewn this pattern but found to get the test square the right size I had to print it at 104.5% (in the UK)
   Had I not checked the print of this I can imagine I would have been very frustrated with sizing. Cannot stress enough for everyone to print their test Square first.

   I made size 14, the finished garment is lovely. The waistband as in the PDF was too short- by about 5 or 6 cm- luckily I had enough fabric to cut another piece. I also added 3cm to the length of the skirt and if I make it again I’ll add 5cm. Generally easy to make and I feel great wearing my new skirt!

   Very easy pattern to make up and worked well with a piece of cotton batik. I made it longer than the pattern and teamed it with a Bonnie top.

   I used a leather imitation as fabric. The skirt is easy to sew and chic in appearance.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
