The Felicity Skirt – Expansion Pack

I firmly believe in getting as much out of a pattern as possible, and now you can get even more out of your Felicity Dress Pattern with the option of turing your dress into a skirt.

Last year I realised that my go-to wardrobe staples, my circle skirts, just weren’t going to cut it on a day to day basis anymore due to no-pocket-syndrome (when you have a baby, pockets really are a must, I don’t know what I’d do without them right now), I glanced over at my Felicity dresses hanging in the wardrobe and on went the light bulb.

Felicity has the perfect pockets already incorporated into both skirt options, plus, Felicity’s pockets are a design feature in themselves, taking an ordinary skirt and making it that much better.

You can make the circle skirt out of pretty much anything, from light floaty fabrics to lush wools (I’ve made both!) and the gathered skirt is best made up in a lighter weight woven fabric with some drape.

The green skirt in these photos is made from a vintage wool and the gathered skirt from a cotton lawn.

You’ll need your original Felicity Dress Pattern to make the skirt, and if you purchase Felicity now, the pack is already included.

The Felicity Skirt is modelled here with The Bronte Top.
