candyo said... I agree- what a terrible design. 9/26/04 8:22 AM

Pattern Junkie said... Oh no! I just picked up fabric to make this skirt -- luckily it was a great deal from the L.A. fabric district! I think the skirt looks great on you, but it sounds like it's a nightmare to wear... 9/26/04 10:36 AM

Skymom said... Gee, I kinda like the way this looks on you, but it IS a "look," and I don't know that I'd be able to wear it either. I hadn't even thought about how the back would work, and clinging like a damp towel is not a style statement I'm willing to make! thanks for the review--I own this pattern but will probably put it on the bottom of the "to sew" list for now. 9/27/04 9:48 AM
leiden said... Thank you for the reveiw, I bought the pattern and made it. I think it looks nice on you, but if you don't feel good in it, you don't! 5/19/07 9:39 AM
bevog said... Shame you don't feel comfortable in it. I actually think it looks great! 4/30/09 3:20 AM
