I am about to start making the Style Arc Sorrento skirt.
I am intending to base my size on my hip measurement (and adjust the waist as necessary), and, helpfully, Style Arc give full tables for both their sizing and the finished measurements of the garment for this pattern.
If I choose my actual hip measurement I will end up with a stonking
fourteen inches of ease on the hips. My fabric is a linen-look, just a touch lighter-weight than linen. Washed linen is one of the recommended fabrics, although the others are much lighter - silk, rayon or 'a knit'.
That isn't going to look good, is it?!? It's a new pattern, and nobody has reviewed it yet on Pattern Review - or anywhere else as far as I can see.
