If you want to alter it though, do it properly instead of just cutting. Make sure that the tailor will work with stretchy fabrics though, cause some wont :/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311781 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 12:48:35 +0000 Star (Lise) 2311781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would do a lock-over zig-zag kind of stitch, no hem.&nbsp; I did it with a knitted cotton tunic I cut and it worked well.&nbsp; Rather the tailor did it - hence the lack of knowledge of what it is called :)&nbsp; It was my idea though.&nbsp; Maybe it is called Overlocking.&nbsp; &nbsp;Other sewers may be able to advise.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311776 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 12:17:39 +0000 Tanya 2311776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I kept mine, some are VC, some other brands, and still wear them from time to time.&nbsp; I actually gave them a mini revival and wore them a lot in summer 2021, I think I posted a bunch of outfits.&nbsp; I don't think I will ever get rid of them until they are worn out because I really like them, regardless of what is trending.&nbsp; &nbsp;Plus, with the '90s revival, column skirts and dresses are trending, and I can see tube skirts working as a subtype of column.</p> <p>Funny thing, I never noticed the hem was unfinished!&nbsp; I have just checked mine, and all but one (the striped one) have finished hems, which would explain why.&nbsp; &nbsp;I would find a trusted tailor and check with them.&nbsp; &nbsp;I recently bought a dress from an unusual knit material that needs taking in at the waist and was unsure on how feasible it is, but the tailor said no problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311715 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 05:35:43 +0000 DonnaF 2311715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This skirt? I still have it and wear it. I have a VC skirt that’s more of a crepe that I hacked. I think it helped that the print hid the raw edge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311708 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 04:54:36 +0000 elpgal 2311708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zaeobi - I’d be the last to know when things are out of style But I don’t see this type of skirt anymore. We had a few seasons of prairie skirts, then small floral skirts with elastic waists and now slip-skirts. But good tip to try before I take scissors to it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311706 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 04:42:44 +0000 Zaeobi 2311706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh do tube skirts go out of fashion? Oops, lol - I have ruched jersey versions I still wear! </p> <p>Could you roll the waistband or hem it with fashion tape first (to confirm you like it short), before committing to hacking it for good? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311705 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 04:35:09 +0000 elpgal 2311705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aquamarine - yes! They are just what I need on days when I feeling bloated.</p> <p>Indigoprint - Vince Camuto still makes them! They have an unstitched edge that seems to lay flat.<br /> <a href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vince-camuto-midi-tube-skirt/7094705" rel="nofollow">https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vi.....rt/7094705</a></p> <p>Suz - Did you have the stripey version per chance? I plan to take it to the tailor to see whether they can trim it for me. I don’t trust myself to cut in straight lines </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311702 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 04:16:39 +0000 Suz 2311702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I loved them. I finally donated the last of mine this year. I actually had one of mine hemmed and that worked fine, although it made it a big snugger at the bottom. But still wearable (for me, at least).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311701 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 04:05:58 +0000 Indigoprint 2311701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not familiar with the specific skirt you are refering to. But I do know a little about knits. If it is a completely raw edge meaning no stitching near the edge you should be able to trim where you want the hem to be. It will not unravel. It will look raw and may roll but I would think that is how it looks now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311690 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 03:08:42 +0000 Aquamarine 2311690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a couple and can’t seem to quit them. Sometimes they are just the thing. I’ve never trimmed mine but I think others have.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tube-skirts-circa-2019#post-2311654 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 23:39:44 +0000 elpgal 2311654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do y’ll remember the Vince Camuto knit tube skirts? The ones with an unfinished hem? I unearthed one that I bought pre-pandemic and never wore. I know it is no longer trendy but it is so so comfortable. </p> <p>It is longer than I like and if I recall correctly, some of you performed at-home alterations by cutting the extra fabric. Can someone confirm please. </p>
