Description
Silvana is an elegant midi skirt sewing pattern with a softly flared silhouette and a striking front slit. Inspired by classic tailoring, it features Italian pockets, a slim waistband with belt loops and a flattering fitted shape, making it equally suited to everyday wear or smarter occasions.
Recommended Fabric
Medium-weight woven fabrics (160–300gsm) with a soft drape, including viscose or Tencel™ twill, lightweight wool, linen, dupion and soft jacquard. Avoid stiff fabrics, as they won't allow the pleats to drape correctly.
Fabric required (140cm wide)
EU 34–38: 1.1m | EU 40–44: 1.4m | EU 46–52: 1.6m
Please note
Silvana is an intermediate sewing pattern. Key techniques include sewing Italian pockets, front pleats, a front slit, a fitted waistband and an invisible zip.
