While perusing YouTube for the most popular DIY tutorials, we came across this gem. With 106,000 views as of March 2015, we are blown away at how many people have been inspired by Ovoke’s straight forward explanation of how to make a DIY skater skirt.
Our stretch faux leather is the perfect material to emulate the skirt from her tutorial:
That 106,000 view count says a lot about how approachable the tutorial is, and your suggestion of stretch faux leather really elevates the final look compared to basic cotton versions I’ve seen before.
I like how you pointed out Ovoke’s straightforward explanation, because skater skirts can feel intimidating at first. Using stretch faux leather for this pattern makes sense since it keeps that structured flare without restricting movement.
This is great! Thank you for sharing. I’m going to order stretch faux leather right now so I can make my own.
Imagine the fun that could happen by adding a mesh petticoat underneath….
