Although I feel very disdressed for you that you don't feel it's perfect as when I saw the close up photo of the lining and the zip it all looked so carefully done and so beautifully finished that to then find the zip bulges out must have been a traumatic moment. I've had this with a shop bought skirt and I wondered whether the zip was too long (I still bought it anyway, as a long top does cover it!). <br /><br />If you don't like installing zips have you thought about creating an extention tab and having a button fastening instead? It probably wouldn't have worked for the style of this skirt as it would look too fussy with the patterned fabric, but it's a less stressful option for plainer things and a good excuse to go button shopping in Liberty. <br /><br />xFlorence Knapp (Flossie Teacakes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09024138702384185444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734628859127072594.post-34138983349512077252011-11-07T21:15:41.888+00:002011-11-07T21:15:41.888+00:00Kate, perhaps mentioning that I've had a coupl...Kate, perhaps mentioning that I've had a couple wasn't the brightest of things to say.

Fun fabric and good style and I am in awe that you have achieved your White Stuff skirt. I haven't yet tried a zip in a garment so have taken note of your thoughts but I'm sure the next time you try it, it will work straight away and perhaps you'll wonder what the problem was?<br />Love your tights and boots by the way!<br />Kate xharmony and rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06514921461051048885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734628859127072594.post-14943352512654962392011-11-07T20:32:30.188+00:002011-11-07T20:32:30.188+00:00Looks fantastic!

I usually spend dress making days in a state of half dress hopping round in very little between various trying on sessions. I think it helps to take photos of yourself in the skirt as you try it- I find this better than just looking in the mirror- more objective.verykerryberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07485169920671733941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734628859127072594.post-74180540583124553222011-11-07T19:14:10.552+00:002011-11-07T19:14:10.552+00:00It's a beautiful skirt, and looks great inside...It's a beautiful skirt, and looks great inside and out and most importantly - ON!!
