PDF Pattern for a Pleated Mini Skirt

The Roxane skirt sewing pattern is a classic, high-waisted mini skirt design with an integrated waistband. It fastens at the back with an invisible zipper. The pleats allow it to be fitted at the waist and flared towards the bottom. 

You will encounter, in particular, the following techniques: 

 - Inserting an invisible zipper
- Making box pleats
- Sewing a hem

The pattern comes with clear, illustrated instructions to guide you step by step.

If you choose the guided option, a YouTube video is also available to assist you throughout your sewing project. 

To make this skirt, you will need the following amount of fabric: 1.10 m (1 1/4 yd / 43 in) of fabric in length for a fabric width of at least 1.20 m (47 in).

You will also need an invisible zipper of about 20 cm (8 in).

For this skirt, I recommend using a pressing ruler (optional).

To make a pleated skirt, it is important to choose a fabric that has enough structure to hold the pleats, while having a good drape for beautiful movement. I recommend choosing from the following types of fabric: polyester fabric, taffeta fabric, gabardine (wool or cotton), or even a cotton fabric blended with polyester.
