Let\’s talk about a full vs half circle skirt.

In a nut shell a full circle skirt is basically a big circle of fabric with a hole in the middle where your waist goes. It is flat at the waist band and very full around the bottom. A full circle skirt requires a lot of fabric but they are super twirly and fun.

A half circle skirt is really just that. To make one you could cut a half circle and sew one seam and you have a skirt.

It\’s funny to say but I\’m having a hard time putting it into words so let me just show you with pictures.

Three different Full Circle Skirts. In the top photo you can see how the full circl skirt is actually a full circle. The skirt shown in that photo is a maxi length.

And finally, my favorite. I love a lot of fullness in my skirt. I love the feeling of extra twirliness and that swing when I walk.

The Copper Taffeta fabric is still in stock if you love that embroidered look. But if you want something one of a kind designed just for you reserve your custom skirt spot today and we can get to work on it!
