Asymmetrical Wrap A-Line Midi Skirt

Introducing a sophisticated midi-length a-line skirt pattern featuring an asymmetrical draped overlay panel on the front, held by decorative buttons.

When To Wear

This skirt is a versatile piece, perfect for:

Professional Settings: Ideal for office wear or business meetings, offering a polished yet stylish look.
Smart Casual Gatherings: Suitable for brunches, dinners, or social events where a chic and comfortable outfit is desired.
Elevated Everyday Style: a distinctive garment that effortlessly enhances a daily wardrobe with its unique design.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: An a-line midi skirt, designed to gracefully flare from the waist to a midi length.

Waist: Sits at the natural waist with a straight interfaced waistband.

Front: A separate overlay panel (Fly Piece) lies over the front skirt; its curved, hemmed edge falls in soft draped folds and is fixed to the skirt with four decorative buttons sewn through both layers.

Closure: An invisible zipper at the left side seam ensures a smooth fit, complemented by a single button and buttonhole closure on the waistband.

Hem: An asymmetrical hemline: the overlay panel drops to a long point at the side, highlighting the skirt's unique design.

Back: A clean A-line back cut in one piece on the fold.

Level Of Difficulty

Intermediate. This pattern requires neat finishing of the curved overlay panel edge, invisible zipper insertion, and waistband construction with a buttonhole.

Fabric Recommendations

Choose dense skirt fabrics that provide structure and a beautiful drape:

Dense skirt fabrics made from natural or blended fibers

Additional Supplies

Fusible interfacing
4 decorative buttons
1 button for the waistband
Invisible zipper

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, seam allowances are not included. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Hem allowance 2 cm. Allowance along the curved edge of the overlay panel (Fly Piece) – 1.5 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need. Attention! Markings on the patterns are made on the right side.

From main fabric:
- Front Skirt – 1 piece
- Back Skirt – 1 piece on fold
- Fly Piece – 1 piece
- Waistband – 1 piece
From fusible interfacing:

Sewing Instructions

When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!

Fuse the waistband with fusible interfacing.
Overlock the curved center edge and the lower edge of the Fly Piece (overlay panel), fold the allowances to the wrong side and topstitch. Place the Fly Piece right side up on the Front Skirt and baste along the side and upper edges.
Overlock the left side edges separately. Stitch the left side seam from the zipper mark to the hem. Press allowances open. Insert the invisible zipper.
Stitch and overlock the right side edges, press allowances towards the back.
Stitch the outer layer of the waistband to the upper edge of the skirt. Stitch the waistband ends, trim the allowances at the corners and turn right side out. Turn under the inner edge of the waistband and topstitch it in the ditch of the waistband seam. Press the waistband when finished.
Sew the decorative buttons through the Fly Piece and the Front Skirt at the marks, joining the layers.
Mark and make the buttonhole on the waistband. Sew on the button.
Overlock the bottom edge of the skirt, press to the wrong side and topstitch.
