I absolutely love my Emperor’s skirt. I knew I wanted an abstract fabric with every rainbow colour in it, so when it finally came around in the email previews, I jumped on it. My waist measurement doesn’t change, so I opted for a wide flowy skirt in the form of a gathered skirt where the only important measurement really is the waist. I added a frill for a bit of a kick. I think it makes a garment look more finished and fancy! Then a week after, I got the next fabric email with another beautiful rainbow fabric, which I decided to add to my skirt as a contrast frill. It’s definitely the finishing touch for a maximalist like me! I adore my skirt and wear it constantly. It goes with plenty of items in my closet, I actually just got a new shirt that goes with it.

An abstract big bloom fabric came up that I immediately envisioned as a fancy skirt, but I wasn’t sure which type of skirt would get the most out of the fabric and the print. The team were brilliant at guiding me through the pros and cons and we settled on a gathered skirt. Absolutely love how it turned out and already have my eye on some fabrics for more gathered skirts in the future.

Last Christmas, I sourced my own festive fabric, and Cecily helped me design the most comfy gathered skirt with it! Perfect for the season, it didn’t need a lining, but I decided on side-seam pockets and some elastic in the waistband (for garment longevity). I’m so thrilled with it, I can’t wait to design another one! 🙂
