They rate it 2.5 out of three, so it isn't that easy to sew if you don't have practice. I do think it's great though, because you can put it on over everything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856963 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 17:12:49 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 856963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This one from Danier has a similar look but is longer. It does incorporate leather accents though which is very on trend.</p> <p><a href="http://www.danier.com/leather-women-skirts-dresses-113020112-P7492.aspx?lang=en&#038;colour=722" rel="nofollow">http://www.danier.com/leather-.....colour=722</a>|979797&amp;mc=yes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856929 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 16:25:18 +0000 Kalli 856929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vildy, I love burda sewing. I've only made a skirt from there and it's super easy. I think for trendy pieces we shouldn't spend all our paychecks on. More on my idea about sewing one is taking an existing mini skirt and adding the folded panel on top and then trimming that mini skirt so that it has the wrap look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856922 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 16:20:07 +0000 Vildy 856922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is something reminiscent:<br /> unique Hip Wrap which is an overskirt of leather, wool, ans felt that hugs your hips like a wide belt. The edges are left unfinished and it’s closed with snap fasteners. It looks great worn over slim trousers!</p> <p><a href="http://www.burdastyle.com/blog/modern-minimalist-11-new-patterns#tl-7bfaecc5" rel="nofollow">http://www.burdastyle.com/blog.....l-7bfaecc5</a></p> <p>about the 4th picture down.

I was in love with a McQ - Alexander McQueen skirt last year, except it wasn't in my skirt budget or at least at the time I wasn't willing to spend about $500 for a wool houndstooth circle skirt (and it was too short for my prude tastes). Anyhow, even when it went on sale, they never have my size. I decided to sew a similar one. I'm sure you can modify an existing skirt :). </p> <p>Here is the skirt:<br /> <a href="http://www.alexandermcqueen.com/mcq/womenswear/skirts/Houndstooth-Full-Circle-Mini-Skirt/804933523,en_US,pd.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.alexandermcqueen.co.....US,pd.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856511 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 03:20:19 +0000 Caro in Oz 856511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Proenza Schouler I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856443 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 02:10:00 +0000 Raisin 856443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, those are very similar Ceit!</p> <p>Yes way back when I was 9 I could sew a few things. But those days are long over. I can fix up holes and stuff but haven't made anything from a pattern in about 20 years! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856438 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 02:07:29 +0000 Thistle 856438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would look for a DIY tutorial on these skirts. Honestly, I bet you could make one if you can sew. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856437 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 02:01:58 +0000 Sarah A 856437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My latest plan is to learn how to draft my own patterns and sew since the stuff i like seems totally out of my price range. Not sure if you have any background or exp. there. I figure it wont take more time than not finding anything shopping.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-from-the-super-sleuths-can-you-find-me-a-similar-skirt#post-856436 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 02:01:09 +0000 Anonymous 856436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These have a similar feel to me?
