Measurements were taken from home and fit well on the first try. I received it on the promised date.

Anjali Tomar

I was little confused about the fabric as it was Chiffon but they suggested to go for partially lined fabric and explained me all fabric options over video call. Skirt came up so nice for my daughter with 3 layer.

Calculations

Radius of the waist, Half circle would be waist divided by Pi. 360° would be waist divided by 2 x Pi. Double circle would be waist divided by 4 x Pi.

Whether your skirt hem will be even will depend upon the width of the fabric, the bias of the grain and letting it hang for 24 hours.

The skirt will flare depending on the degree you cut it at. 90°, 180°, 360°, 720°.

Cutting

The flat stiff hem you get with store bought skirts comes down to poor cutting. Everything starts with the cutting!

How Is a Skirt Cut? Circle Skirt Mathematics Made Easy

All circle skirts are simply that – circles! Well, more accurately they are a ring shape, because we’ve cut a smaller circle from the middle for the waist.

There are just a couple of circle skirt mathematics that we need to know. The radius of the smaller circle – the waist radius – and the length of the skirt from the waist – the skirt drop. Add these together and you have the length of the radius arc to draw on your fabric.

How Do You Calculate the Waist Radius?

To work out the waist radius we use the circumference of a circle calculation, substituting π = 3.14159:

360° radius = waist ÷ (2 × π)
Half circle radius = waist ÷ π
Double circle radius = waist ÷ (4 × π)

So if our waist measurement is 28 inches, the radius of the waist circle would be:

360° radius = 28 ÷ (2 × 3.14159) = about 4.5 inches
Half circle radius = 28 ÷ 3.14159 = about 8.9 inches
Double circle radius = 28 ÷ (4 × 3.14159) = about 2.2 inches

This is the basic circle skirt mathematics, from here it’s just a case of adding in allowances (0.5 inch seam allowance at the waist arc and whatever you’re using for your hemline allowance) and cutting out your fabric.

The amount of fabric required will obviously increase as the skirt flare increases. So you’d expect a 720° double circle skirt to use more fabric (and sewing time!) than a 90° quarter circle skirt.

Why Does the Bias Grain Matter?

Circle skirts are partly cut on the bias grain – this is at a 45° angle to the straight of the weave. Because of this the fabric can stretch and distort with its own weight, meaning your carefully hemmed skirt may be a little lopsided after only a few hours of wear!

It’s for this reason that it’s important to hang the skirt for 24 hours before cutting the hem to make sure it’s nice and level. It’s an easy step to overlook (even many home sewists do!), but worth doing.

So we know how to cut our circle skirt – but which one shall we make?

Which Skirts Can We Make and Stitch for You?

We stitch skirts for women, in your desired length and design and on your chosen fabric. Some of the most commonly stitched skirts are:

Circle family: circle skirt, half circular skirt, half circle skirt, full circle skirt, double circle skirt, circle skirt with pockets, reversible wrap circle skirt, side-knot wrap skirt.
Umbrella and festive: umbrella skirt, umbrella skirt lehenga, lehenga, festive skirt, festive lehenga, umbrella gown, full flare 360 degree umbrella gown, ballroom gown.

Simply share a photo, video, or rough sketch of the skirt you want. Our designers will convert it into a pattern and share the design with you for approval. Only after you’re happy with the design do we move ahead with the cutting process.

We also stitch skirts for girls. And since we stitch clothing for men and kids too, you can send us all your stitching requirements in a single order!

Book a slot for a video call or a home visit.
Get measured. During a home visit, our measurement expert will come to your doorstep and take your measurements. During a video call, they’ll guide you on how to take accurate measurements. Either way, they’ll take note of your waist, hip, and length measurements for the skirt.
Confirm the final skirt design, fabric, and price. Before we begin cutting, we’ll share the final design, price, and fabric options with you. The final price of a skirt depends on its design, fabric, type of lining, and finishing. Once confirmed, we guarantee there won’t be any additional charges.

Tips for Choosing the Right Skirt Fabric

Want us to stitch an office-friendly crepe midi skirt? Or a festive, voluminous, layered umbrella skirt lehenga with braid and netting? Tell us at the time of placing the order. Other customisation options like hook-and-eye fastening, partial/full lining, reinforced waistband, etc. can also be mentioned at this time.

Pro tip: Carry your skirt fabric to the measurement visit. This will help our measurement expert guide you about fabric requirements, drape, etc.

What fabric and finish should I use for skirt?

What fabric should I use for skirt?

Crepe, chiffon, georgette, rayon, viscose are light and soft fabrics with a lovely flowing drape.

Cotton canvas or a heavier brocade fabric will add structure to the skirt.

Chiffon and georgette are see through fabrics so we like to partially line the skirt.

Crepe and cotton are easy to sew with. Cotton is also breathable.

Waistband, fastening and finish.

– Elastic waistband: 2″ elastic (which should be 2″ smaller than your waist measurement) will be threaded through a channel created by folding a 5″ waistband.

– Hidden zip: This will give your skirt a neat finish.

– Pockets: Sit around 3.5″ below the waistband.

– Overlocked seam: This stops the fabric fraying.

– Curved hem: Folding in 1/8″ of the fabric will help to keep the hem flat.

– Horsehair braid: 1″-2″ braid will add some lift to the hem for a party wear look.

– Can cane net petticoat: Can cane netting can be stitched in the hem of the skirt for added volume.

– Bias stretch: It’s important to let the fabric settle before cutting it out.

– Interfacing: Used in the waistband and pocket openings for structure and a neat finish.

Would you like to make your own?

We recommend YouTube as there are some great tutorials available.

Try a full tutorial which will show you how to measure for the radius of the waist, bias and hem.

Step by step tutorials are great too.

Try this stitching tutorial which shows you how to make a half circle skirt with no pattern required. A great project for beginners.

This double circle skirts tutorial would be best suited to those who have made skirts before.

Tools: You will need a measuring tape, fabric scissors, tailor’s chalk and cutting table. A rotary cutter, overlocker and dress form would be handy too.

HOW IT WORKS

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Why is my skirt hem uneven and wrinkly?

The fabric is cut on the bias so will stretch, let it hang for 24hrs and mark a level line with chalk, then cut to this line.

Q2. What is the formula for working out the waist radius?

For a half circle, waist measurement ÷ π (Pi) For a full circle (360 degrees), waist measurement ÷ (2 x π (Pi)) For a double circle, waist measurement ÷ (4 x π (Pi)) Use π (Pi) = 3.14159 Then add 0.5″ seam allowance.

Q3. How much fabric do I need for a long flared circle skirt to the floor?

For a long flared circle skirt to the floor, you will need approx 3 yards (approx 2.75m) of 54-60″ wide fabric. If you use 44″ wide fabric you will need more, please contact us with your measurements for an exact estimate.

Q4. How can I hem the skirt without it being uneven or wrinkly?

Let the fabric hang first, then press and sew a very fine 1/8″ double fold hem using small stitches. Alternatively you could do a rolled hem. Press as you go.

Q5. How long should the casing strip be to make a waistband using 2" wide elastic?

Use a 5″ wide strip and fold down each side using a 0.5″ seam allowance to make a casing. Cut the elastic to 2″ less than the waist measurement.

Q6. Should I line the circle skirt if I am using a crepe or chiffon fabric?

If using a sheer fabric, we would recommend lining at least half way up the skirt.

Q7. How do I make a circle skirt without using an elasticated waist or a zip?

Try one of our wrap circle skirt patterns, there are styles that double wrap around or tie at the side. Alternatively, you could use a close fitting waistband with a hook and eye fastening.

Q8. What are some ways to add fullness to an umbrella circle skirt or a lehenga?

Use layers, circle skirts work well layered over each other. Alternatively try adding a can-can petticoat with hoops or netting underneath, or adding 1-2″ horsehair braid to the hem. Brocade is a great fabric to use as it has good body.

Q9. How do I add side pockets to a circle skirt?

Add an in-seam pocket bag (see our pocket construction tutorial). We would suggest starting about 3.5″ below the waist to avoid the bias effect of the fabric. Use some interfacing to stabilise the pocket opening so it doesn’t stretch.

Q10. What do I do if my fabric isn’t wide enough to make a full circle skirt?

You will need to piece the skirt panels together side by side using a 0.5″ seam allowance (these side seams will be hidden so don’t worry about them!).
