How to Make a Tuxedo Skirt

how to make a diy tuxedo skirt via Kristina J blog

The grosgrain ribbon can be as wide or narrow as you want. I used 2.5 inch wide ribbon for this project. A wider ribbon would make your tuxedo strip more visible from the front or back.

      Thank you so much for posting this so clearly. But, how much does the average wedding ring cost? Non the less, wonderful write up!

    Kristina, I really appreciate your blog and your style. But these pencil skirts are not modest. It delineate the body and when one sits, it rises and shows her thighs.
