So, last night I went out to a musical with some friends and we decided a neat appearance was wanted. I quickly re-examined this skirt and found there was not a lot of room in the sideseams, but there were 3 darts that could be let out. I quickly took off the waistband, ripped out the stitches, pressed, and put it all back together again. Just an inch more room, but it was all I needed!
I thought about covering the little "gap" on the inside facing that resulted from this adjustment, but I was rushed for time and I don't think I will do it anytime soon. It does not bother me that much anyway :-)
Below you can see the skirt on my lovely assistant and some details of the "refashion". You can see where I let out the darts, but I am confident those marks will slowly disappear when washed and pressed a few times more.
