Here's another post on my favorite pattern details and this one focused on the many ways a skirt can be adapted and made more interesting.

The distinctive mini-godets of this skirt intrigued me.

| Butterick 7348 | 
This skirt uses fabric piecing to add interest to the ubiquitous 50s full skirt by adding curved side hip panels. I wonder what would happen if a stiff fabric underlined those panels, would it add lift similar to crinoline?

More of the same in this one with separate side tiers combined with gathers.

| Simplicity 2876 | 
A lovely front draped skirt incorporates structural pockets for functionality and style.

| Simplicity 8384 | 
A lovely trumpet skirt.

| Vogue S-4846 | 
A delightfully dated gathered bubble hem finishes this elegant cocktail dress.
A combination of pleated horizontal tiers and a gathered back train detail makes up this frock that seems perfect with a veiled hat and white gloves.
