I’ve spent the afternoon dodgying up what I’d hoped would be a wearable muslin. It featured a too-short circle skirt that I decided to peplum onto a pencil skirt. Except I never make or wear pencil skirts, so I didn’t take into account that making it waist-width would not accommodate my wider-than-waist length assets below the waist.
So it’s basically a wiggle skirt that I can barely sit down in, and makes actually bending down a physical impossibility.
When I make this for real, I will probably use a stretchy fabric and possibly go for a half circle skirt.
To fix this, I may just keep the circle skirt bit as an appropriately short dancing skirt…
