Wardrobe By Me - PDF Sewing Pattern - Claude Skirt

The Claude Skirt PDF Sewing Pattern by Wardrobe By Me is a versatile wardrobe staple with a relaxed silhouette, comfortable elasticated waistband and practical side-seam pockets. Designed for everyday wear, this ankle-length skirt is easy to style up or down depending on your choice of fabric.

The long version features subtle gathers at the waist and a gentle flare towards the hem, giving it an easy, flowing shape. Prefer a shorter length? Simply shorten the pattern from the hem to create a skirt that suits your style.

Designed for light to medium-weight woven fabrics, Claude works well in cotton, linen, viscose and denim, as well as baby cord. Choose a crisp cotton for an everyday skirt, soft viscose for more movement or baby cord for a different texture. The elasticated waist makes it comfortable to wear, while the inseam pockets give you somewhere practical to keep your essentials.

Available in sizes 2XS–4XL, covering US sizes 0–24 and European sizes 30–54, this dressmaking pattern is a satisfying project for confident beginners and experienced sewists alike. Wardrobe By Me rates it at skill level 1 out of 4, with fully illustrated, step-by-step instructions to guide you through construction. The model wears a size M.

Pair your finished Claude Skirt with a simple T-shirt, the Wardrobe By Me Boxy Raglan or Pika Vest for an easy everyday outfit.
