It actually looked very clever. The zip was opened from the hem so that gave the wearer room to walk while keeping the dress shapely.velosewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18241344721302194932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595089853264619781.post-83161514996744134542012-01-27T08:29:55.201+00:002012-01-27T08:29:55.201+00:00That will be fabulous for your SWAP.

I am going to put in a back zipper on mine and may try it in a stretch woven (making one size larger than normal) I like the idea of a split at the back or a kick pleat. Though it should also be possible to straighten the skirt sides a bit so its got more room I think. Fiddly, but possible.Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01380047564035289054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595089853264619781.post-2638502504144652762012-01-27T05:52:34.162+00:002012-01-27T05:52:34.162+00:00Really nice style lines on that skirt.

I think you can just do a standard zipper with a seam below it, however, it looks pretty narrow and you may want to add a kick pleat at the skirt bottom.<br />Love your outfits so far!<br />lyndasewing.blogspot.comLyndaSewing.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11089629519757691936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595089853264619781.post-76648179450844502252012-01-26T23:12:35.470+00:002012-01-26T23:12:35.470+00:00If there is a zipper all the way down, you can do ...If there is a zipper all the way down, you can do a 9" zipper and a seam below.
