- Carrie Bradshaw
That's Me!
Go twirly and glam with this gorgeous Sex & the City Reminiscent skirt - you know the one. The one in the opening credits worn by The Carrie Bradshaw.
Options include:
- Full or super full (I went super full)
- Invisible zipper fastening
- Tea length skirt (you can shorten/lengthen it if desired)
- Woven lining
- Lightweight outer fabric
I went with 3 layers of tulle purchased for a steal off Amazon.ca. I have so much tulle leftover, I can make ALL the skirts. And costumes. And everything tulle.
I used a normal cotton fabric waistband purchased somewhere unknown. But it has a cute old fashioned sewing machine pattern throughout it.
The lining is some sort of normal dress lining gifted to me by my aunt-in-law a few summers ago.
Each tulle layer is sewn onto the waistband separately - this is the most time consuming part of the sewing with lots of gathers and pinning..but SO worth the pretty factor.
The back zipper never seems to stay centred for me, but that's okay - it looks awesome regardless.
The zipper was actually easy to sew in following the instructions. I stays up, and the skirt sits at my natural waistline.
I paired my Tulle Skirt with my Savannah Swimsuit - so I sense the Savannah being a great bodysuit too!
So be a fashionista at home on the couch, out with the Ladies, attending your friends next wedding, or as a costume.
Bring the Ballerina from within out with the Tulle Skirt!
***Affiliate Links Above used - I love these patterns, and without the help of those who love their patterns, marketing would be extremely difficult for the pattern makers we love and learn to love. Affiliate links help with the hours, fabric, and tears that go behind testing each pattern in order to provide a real-person view on the patterns for you (and me!)
