Recommended Fabrics: The Bernadette Skirt is designed for woven fabrics. Any sort of medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim you will get a more structured skirt. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a flowier skirt.
Sizes: XS/0 - 7X/32 (49.5"/126 cm - 77.5"/197 cm hip)
Fit Notes: The Bernadette has two length options, mini and midi length. The mini falls mid thigh and the midi falls a few inches above the ankle. It was drafted using sample measurements for a height of 5’6”[168cm]. This skirt is designed to be fitted but not too tight through the waist. There is a fair amount of ease in the hips to allow the pleats to fall nicely.

- The model in the khaki version is wearing a size XXL. The fabric is a cotton canvas.
