So I also ordered Butterick 5850 which has a straight skirt style as well. I'm with you, I'm thinking straight skirt. I just finished a full skirted style, and am working on Colette's Crepe, another full skirt. I'll check out your other suggestion as well!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10472684934233033259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-528106315308236214.post-49910190576919070272013-06-20T09:11:55.943-07:002013-06-20T09:11:55.943-07:00Hi, I came over from Gertie's blog to see your...Hi, I came over from Gertie's blog to see your Shaheen fabric and I love what you found! <br />When it comes to sewing your own dress I say, make it a straight skirt. Probably the easiest way is to use a great vintage look like the one Gertie has on Butterick (#5814). This is a simple straight skirt with great vintage side drape that should be easy to alter a fit and would look perfect with that bodice. But if you want the more traditional sarong drape, try looking in vintage 80's patterns where there are many draped styles, like Butterick 6150 (now on sale at Etsy).<br />--looking forward to your posts on making this dress!Jen Ohttp://pintuckstyle.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
