Introducing our versatile and elegant hybrid skirt pattern, the Ele(-gant) Skirt. Designed to blend classic style with contemporary comfort, this skirt features an elastic back for the ideal fit that eliminates the need for closures. The flat front showcases three pleats on each side of the front panel, adding a touch of polished grace with a visually slimming effect. These pleats can be customized to suit your style, whether you prefer simple directional pleats, bold box inverted pleats, or gentle gathers. This adaptability ensures that each Ele Skirt you create will have a unique look and feel, making it a timeless wardrobe staple that you will reach for again and again.
This skirt also features completely hidden inseam pockets for added practicality and comes with two waistband width options. For a more casual look, choose the narrow waistband, and for a classic, high-waisted feel, opt for the wide waistband.

PATTERN PRINTING (At Home (A4/Letter) / Copy Shop (A0) / Projector)
If you're new to using PDF patterns, I'd recommend checking out a tutorial or video on how to use them. Here’s my video link for you! https://youtu.be/CT-W4P-cd2w?si=dJ7GSdPo746zCO_c
At Home (A4/Letter) :
When it comes to printing the pattern at home, we offer two versions. The first is a standard version that is 20 pages and includes all pattern pieces. The second option is 15 pages, saving you paper and ink. This option provides the measurements for both versions of the Front and Back Waistbands, rather than the pattern pieces. Select the option that works best for you.
For your convenience, layer options for each size are included in the pattern. Please ensure that your printer settings are adjusted to a scale of 100% or set to ‘Actual Size’ for accurate printing.
A0 (Copy Shop) Option / Projector Option
We offer both A0 (Copy Shop) and Projector options. You can find the files in their respective folders. For your convenience, layer options for each size are included in the pattern.
