With a nice vintage overtone, the Jaya skirt is a high-waist skirt that has some style and can be worn throughout the year. Very comfortable thanks to its flared shaped and its small front and back gathers, it is also elegant and feminine with its wide waistband (either V-shaped or curved) that underlines the waist so nicely.
Jaya is available in 4 lengths: mini or 50cm, midi or 65cm, ballerina or 80cm, or maxi (length that fits your height). You can choose a straight hem or an asymmetrical hem and if you want, you can also add pockets or even line it!
It’s zippered at the back and the instructions make sewing the zipper so simple.
This skirt is made of 5 pieces. It is a quick and easy pattern to sew, even for beginners.
In short, the plethora of variations will offer you a wide range of Jayas in all seasons!
