A very easy skirt to sew, an A-line skirt is a garment that is fitted at the hips and gradually widens towards the hem, creating the shape of a capital letter “A”. Unlike a simple gathered skirt, a gathered A-line skirt does not add extra gathers at the waist – which is great, but you can still enjoy flared bottom of the skirt. No zipper!

An A-line skirt can be any length
