Suggested fabrics: Light to midweight woven fabric such as washed linen, crinkle linen, cotton or linen rayon blend. The fabric used will affect the overall look of the skirt. A lightweight, drapey fabric such as rayon will create a soft, flowy skirt, whereas a stiffer fabric will create a more voluminous, structured silhouette.
