How can I make my skirt more flared?

Published in Sewing Techniques 1 min read

To make your skirt more flared, you can add extra flare at the side seams, starting at the fullest part of your hip. This distributes the fullness evenly around the skirt.

Here's a breakdown of how to achieve a more flared skirt:

  • Adding Flare at the Side Seams:

    • You can add flare by drawing an equal amount of extra flare at the side seams. This should start at the fullest part of the hip. This ensures a smooth transition and prevents the skirt from bulging at the hip.
    • This method allows you to control the amount of flare you want to add. The fullness is distributed around the entire skirt.
    • This creates a more gradual and balanced flare compared to adding flare in one specific area.
