Choice of two-tier midi skirt or three-tier maxi skirt. Top tier skims the hips, while lower tiers are beautifully swishy.
Instructions guide you through joining tiers with either a classic gathered seam or a decorative exposed frill seam.
Optional pockets, anchored into the waist seam for a sleek finish.
