(This is a bit of a catchup post, as I did this one last summer and just realised I hadn’t posted it – apologies for the terrible photos.) It was my Mums housecoat .. I’ve always loved the design at the bottom and the unusual criss-cross. I cut the top and bottom apart, removed the zip and turned the skirt around. Put a smaller zip in the back and added the black waistband from some fabric I had at home.
