Add a versatile skirt to your handmade wardrobe!

The Yasmeen skirt is a dramatic skirt with exciting seam lines available in 3 lengths: mini, midi, and maxi. The three versions are fitted through the hips, and the midi and maxi skirts start flaring at the knee. Depending on the fabrication and the styling, the skirt can take on a special occasion look or a more casual vibe.

The skirt features an invisible zipper, and the waistband is finished with a facing. The mini and midi versions have an optional lining. French seams and seam binding are used for clean finishings of the unlined versions.


Sizing

I draft and grade my sewing patterns for a height of 5’5” (1.65m) from size 34 to 60 (see below). When applicable, the size range is divided between 34-46, developed for B/C cup size, and 46-60, developed for a DD cup size.

If your body measurements are at least one size outside of the size range, I grade up or down at no cost.

See the sizing page for more information.

The pattern is drafted for a height of 5'5" (1m65) and is available from size 34 to 60 in 3 lengths (mini, midi and maxi). All pattern pieces include lengthen/shorten lines. I recommend using both your waist and hip measurement to pick your size and grading between sizes if necessary.

Measurements in centimeters, then inches.

For reference, I wear the brown and blush maxi versions, the sequins midi, and the beige and floral mini samples in size 38 at the hips, graded to a 36 for the waist. Pauline wears the gold mini in size 50 at the waist, graded down to a 44 at the hips, and lengthened by 3” (7.5cm). Lilli wears the white midi sample in size 52-54 at the waist, graded to 54-56 at the hips.

Fabric and yardage

The samples are from brown mid-weight tweed, white heavy viscose crepe, gold jacquard, floral Gobelin tapestry weave, sequins, beige wool suiting, and blush linen twill. For this pattern, I recommend woven fabrics with drape, such as mid-weight silk crepe, noil and satin, viscose, linen, challis, wool crepe, suiting, and tweed or synthetic alternatives. Fabrics with less drape can be used for the mini length, such as denim or cotton twill.

Included with the pattern: cutting layouts for each size and fabric width.

Notions

  • ½ yd / 0.5 m fusible interfacing
  • 1 invisible zipper 8" / 20 cm long
  • Seam or bias binding: mini 2¾ yd / 2.5 m, midi 3½ yd / 3 m, maxi 4½ yd / 4 m
  • 1 hook and eye
  • Lining (optional, mini and midi): same as the main fabric
