Ballet Bow Skirt PDF Sewing Pattern • FREE

Bravo and Thank-you

I thought this was a very simple and straightforward pattern to follow! I moved the slit down 4 inches for modesty and only did two bows to preserve the spacing. I am 5'7" and found the original opening to be too far up the thigh for my comfort. I appreciate the bow detail for giving it a fun flair with relatively little effort. The pattern is also low/no waste depending on how you cut it

I’ve been wanting a bow skirt pattern forever and this one is perfect. LOVE that it’s no print 🙌🏼

Skirt was straight forward to sew and the instructions were good. I did find the length of the bows too long so next time will cut them shorter. I also only added two bows as I didn’t want such a high slit

The skirt pattern and instructions are 5/5. However, I’d say the fit of the finished dimensions are better suited to someone on the smaller and taller side. I am 160lbs and 5’5”, I normally wear a size M-L but made a size small based off the finished item measurements. Still, I shortened the skirt so it wasn’t so long and cut the skirt panels narrower as I was scared that it would appear too thick/bunched with my body type. I wish I would have taken the width in more still. Overall I highly recommend this pattern, you may just need to adjust it a little for your own body type (as is normal with many patterns). I used a linen viscose noil for this pattern.
