The positive of this pattern is that it has "true fit" options, meaning you can select for a curvy or slim shaped body. I, of course, used the curvy version. The downside of this pattern is there is no lining. I crave linings and think most garments can benefit from them. Especially when the outer shell is see-through.
All and all, this is a quick and easy skirt pattern. While not my favorite straight skirt, it does offer nice curved seams and a kick-pleat. I am impartial to recommending it to others, but the curved seams offer a different approach to fitting. My favorite skirt pattern, in this silhouette, is still Simplicity 2154.
