nice job, especially given all the alteration work you had to do! I'd do a summer one with the drape -- maybe just don't wear it to work?

All your hard work paid off - that skirt manages to be both smart and swishy at the same time! :-) You look fantastic in it! How strange that there was that much length to it - I agree with you, the envelope shows a skirt that hits just below the knee, and 1940s women were, if anything, shorter than now!

I really like that flap on the skirt, nice job!

Nicely done, great work making it your size! I've had the same experience with the length of other 40s patterns, so I would guess they were just made overly long....

I really like this skirt. The drape on the side is so lovely and looks really modern to me. Great job with all of the alterations!

I think this skirt is just stunning. I really love it. PLEASE don't avoid the drape on the next skirt - that is what makes this such a knock out. I'm with colorkitten: just don't wear the second version to work if you think it's too distinctive. I'd wear it. Who cares if people know you have 2 fantastic looking skirts????

Some vintage patterns are just so great, they could be from any era. This certainly fits that category. Great job.

Very nice - I too can see this in a nice flow-y summer fabric.
