The skirt features appliqued ribbons and looks like it would be easy enough for those of you handy with the needle and thread to embellish a white skirt with ribbons to create a similar effect and at little cost. Look for Sheer Organza Ribbon in a range of Blues - Click here to see a selection on eBay. With white or matching thread, pin the ribbon on to a white skirt in random zig zag lines as seen in the photos and press on the inside with an iron to set the pattern, then stitch in place by hand, if needed use a sewing machine over the top edges of the ribbon for a more secure finish. Gather a length of leftover blue ribbon to create a rosette, stitch the rosette to a rope of faux pearls to make the matching belt or to wear as a necklace.
