Description
Lucy’s Circle Skirt Pattern is our most versatile sewing pattern, to add fashionable options to your wardrobe year round! Inspired by the signature skirt Lucy often wore on her eponymous show in the 50s, it’s the perfect choice for everything from running errands (made in denim), to special occasions in taffeta or silk. We’ve included three views in this 1950s skirt pattern, giving you a variety of options to suit to your preferences:
- View A features a flattering curved cummerbund style waistband that makes the waist appear inches smaller. (This style was designed for Lucy during her post-partum filming.) Made in a wrinkle resistant ponte knit, it’s ideal for travel and easy hostessing. View A also looks perfect in a denim or chambray for busy days around town.
- View B goes to The Nutcracker, holiday parties, and weddings with its cleverly shaped waistband which comes straight from 1950s fashion catalogs. It makes any “top & skirt” outfit look more like a dress with the unique waist detailing.
- View C is the quintessential 1950s skirt with its firm, narrow waistband reminiscent of Vera Ellen’s Christmas circle skirts, or Audrey Hepburn’s tan skirt from Roman Holiday.
- Make it in linen, chambray, lightweight denim, ponte knit, twill, gabardine, wool and wool blends, tweed, velveteen, taffeta, heavy satin, silk dupioni, or suiting weight fabrics for an elegant garment you’ll wear for years to come.
- Printed in the USA on high quality white paper you can use again and again, along with easy-to-use illustrated instructions and yardage layouts. All sizes 6-20 are included in the same envelope.
