Katharine, that is beyond fab. I can see why you're getting the eye--this skirt really flatters your '50s bombshell curves.

Looking really good! I should review mine too (I love it! )... :) Did you shorten the flounce - it looks longer in the picture? Also, did you make a smaller size because of using a knit?

I'm not surprised you're bringing out the wolf in the male population! Smashing look, and looks like a great fit! Thanks for the review.

Wow - talk about a lot of "bang" for such a small amount of time! Looks great!

You look simply bodacious!! You look like you've earned the positive response. It's a gorgeous look on you. As Asa asked, is your flounce different to the pattern's?

Very pretty on you. I like that fabric.

Wow. That skirt is so special! Regarding the elastic length, I've been confused by KS's elastic instructions--different patterns call for different lengths for the same waist size! I'm not sure, but possibly it has something to do with whether the elastic is inserted in a casing and not sewn (as much anyway)... or sewn, zigzagging onto the fabric , one or more times. I believe I read that stitching makes elastic expand and become less stretchy.

What a great style for you. I wouldn't have guessed that was done with this pattern, based on the pattern drawings. Glad your asymmetrical version worked out for you as well.

Oops, I reviewed it with the wrong pattern #. Corrected! Thanks for catching it, everyone.

Great looking skirt. I have this pattern and am now even more eager to try it out.

Ahh, now it looks more like the pattern drawing - except better!

Great skirt! Wonder what would happen if you were to wear this with the famous boobalicious top (Simplicity 5255)? Might should be a law against it. ;-)

Woweee...That skirt does look positively smashing on you!

Katherine, does your skirt have slits in the side seams as the pattern description says? I can't tell from the photo. If so, do you like them?
