Hello everyone and welcome to
Hello everyone and welcome to a new video!
This is the second project in my efforts to make a more vintage-inspired-history-bounding wardrobe (I need to find a smaller name for this). I follow quite a few vintage wearers and dressers on Instagram and Youtube, and I have always felt really inspired by these looks (like Rachel Maksy and Shirinatra). I felt like a staple brown skirt would be great for my wardrobe. However, I could never find anything similar to what I wanted in my price range and size online or in vintage and second hand stores.
So I decided to make one! This is a really simple, easy skirt to make. It's a circle skirt with a centre front closure of buttons. I mentioned in my video that I think this style would work best with a less full skirt, as the weight of the button placket closure makes it hang strangely sometimes (but it twirls well sooooo you win some, you lose some?). It is really comfy and goes with everything so I'm actually really happy with it! I would just recommend being wary of the warping of the fabric, because some of it is cut on the bias, it can actually keep stretching while you sew, so I would check the length a few times during the sewing process (something I should have done!).
As mentioned in the video, I don't go over how to draft a circle skirt. There a lot of tutorials out there for this, but here is the one that taught me how to do it, by Angela Clayton:

And also a cool resource is this circle skirt calculator:
