Dear readers,
Today I wanted to show you the Devon Skirt in motion, because this is really where it comes to life.
Devon is a relaxed, elegant midi skirt that sits at the natural waist and features 8 inverted box pleats at the front and 8 at the back. The volume is generous but controlled, so you get movement without bulk.
The Italian pockets keep the lines clean, while the elasticated waistband makes it incredibly comfortable to wear all day.
One of the key things I focused on with this pattern is giving you options depending on how you like to sew. The instructions include three finishing techniques:
- Overlocked seams for a quick and efficient finish
- Bound seams for a clean and beautiful inside
- Fully enclosed seams for a more tailored result
This is one of those pieces that integrates effortlessly into your wardrobe. It works with a simple tee, a structured vest or a shirt, and shifts easily from casual to more dressed up.
