Skirt with cutout and flounce

Today's tutorial is about this mini skirt. It features interesting details like cut-outs and flounce.

You can sew it in a plaid as this one or in any woolen fabric adding lining, or in lighter fabric for a summer look.

Start from a basic skirt with darts and small wearing ease (we suggest 2cm on waist circumference and 2cm on hip one).

If you're new to our method, you can try our free pre-course to create a basic skirt pattern on your own measurements, then you can follow this tutorial to turn the basic pattern into this style!

Step 1

Trace a copy of back and front separate.

Shorten both pieces to mid thigh.

Step 2

On both back and front draw the slash lines as you see in the image:

  • the first one starts in center and is slanted upward toward side seam – it crosses the dart on back and dart apex on front
  • the second one starts from the outer section of the first and is slanted downward to side seam
  • the third one is parallel to the first one and intersects the second

(it’s harder to explain than to draw them!)
