A fuller skirt - soft pleats front and back with some gathering over the hip gives the perfect silhouette.

Many of you have written requesting this pattern in the usual Angela Kane format. Separate drafts for all sizes 6-22.
This versatile classic is fully lined. The pattern includes detailed instructions for making up, a fabric guide and cutting out layouts for all the common fabric lengths.
Are you brave enough to wear this absolutely plain? If not, dress it up in a multitude of ways. I will be trialling Multi Sized Patterns, a feature that is often requested by members. I will be showing how this classic shape can be the basis of tailored jackets and coats. Another of my designs using panels and featuring a two piece sleeve. This shape has endless potential for designers.
