Sheer skirts appeared on runways and have been loved by many celebrities but the buzz about them started on the web. These skirts quickly became bloggers'favorite and started to be photographed everywhere. With so many bloggers suggesting you ways to style them it's your turn to fall in love with  the sheer skirt. Today I'll show you the easiest way to make a sexy but not to revealing skirt. I added a side slit that multiplies the ways to wear it. You can put the slit on one side, on the tight (like Angelina), on the back or on the center front.
You'll need:
  • chiffon fabric
  • lining fabric
  • 1 cm wide elastic band

Fold the sheer fabric and sew the side, sew only 40 cms- Repeat the process for the lining
This is how the side slit looks

Put the lining into the sheer fabric.
Turn over the sheer fabric on the inside a couple of cms.
Make two seams with 1 cm of distance. Leave one side open. This is where you insert the elastic band.
Cut the elastic band the lenght of your waist.
With the help of a safety pin insert the elastic band into the skirt.
You're adjusting the skirt to the size of your waist and you'll gather some fabric.
Block the elastic with a few stitches and the skirt is done!
