I'm trying to focus a little more on separates right now, so this skirt appealed to me.
I like the abstract print, and the contrasting band/placket and waistband. It has a bit of an 80s vibe too, since it's longer than we've been seeing. I would have passed right over it on the website if not for their stylings in the catalog which let me see the possibilities...
It's basically a "neutral". I love that! I have the perfect fabric for it too, a leafy print rayon in a dusty aqua and similar neutrals:
Stay tuned!
I have been drooling over those two outfits in the catalog! hehe. I just love the skirt; I think the length is my favorite. I know in a few years midi length will again be declared "fugly", but I have a soft spot for that particular skirt. (Far more suited to my pear-shape than a mini!)I love the fabric you've chosen--cannot wait to see your take on the skirt!!!
ReplyDeleteThat fabric is perfect!
ReplyDeleteAnthropologie has been striking out so much for me lately that I had almost given up on them. The most recent catalogue though - goodness, it's actually sitting in my living room on one of the end tables with the 'pretty' books, lol!
WING IT.
ReplyDeleteI just love me an anthropologie knockoff. I can't wait to see it!!
ReplyDeleteWing it! You can totally do it.
ReplyDeletehey there! I came across your blog through your dresden petal bag pattern about a year ago -- now I'm trying to finish it and decided to take a look through. this skirt is amazing -- I wonder how it would look as a maxi?
ReplyDeleteoh, wow, that is a gorgeous skirt and your fabric is perfect. Happy sewing.
ReplyDeleteYou can wing it. Like you said, it's all just rectangles... if it was a japanese pattern, you'd just get measurements anyway, right? (Or BWOF/BS for that matter)
ReplyDeleteGreat skirt idea, and that fabric is very pretty, I'm excited to see your finished project!
ReplyDeleteThats a really pretty fabric you chose. I'd love to see the finished product!
