Button-down Roses Mini Skirt - Small to medium

Vintage polyester fabric is just soooo BAAAD! But in my hands, it gets a cool new life again. Some might call this skirt recycled or upcycled, except the fabric is vintage virgin, NBS -- Never Been Sewed.

Vintage polyester double knit plaid suiting makes up this sexy short mini skirt. Great black & white complex plaid with tiny houndstooth and checks, with accent cross threads of teal and hot pink. On the left side are two tabs with big hot pink buttons, just decorative. This vintage polyester has some stretch, and tons of texture. I double stitched the sides (hips) for durability, and that pesky weight gain!

The sheer stretchy 4.5" ruffle is a printed net, printed with hot pink ink. It's joined to the skirt with hot pink "zombie" serging, which I have pulled into a flatlock profile, and edged with a black & pink sergied border.

All topped off with a 2" wide black waist band of very soft cotton knit.

>>>I have more of both these fabrics if you'd like another size.

Hips (5" below band top): 38 - 41" (97 - 104 cm)

The dress-form is 25" waist 39" hips (64/99 cm), so the skirt sits a bit high on it.
