The design is passionate and exciting, with just the right amount of 'Latin flair'!

This skirt is a great style for 'Kitri' from "Don Quixote", 'Spanish' from "Nutcracker", and lots of other Spanish and Latin-style choreography.

The full-circle under-skirt is built on a basque, in 4 tiers, with more than 12 yards of sparkle organza, and over 40 yards of ruffled lace. The result is very full and flowing, and moves beautifully.

You will construct the skirt and attached basque in class, and you can then easily add a 6-, 8-, 10-, 12-, or 16-piece bodice to complete your skirt into a beautiful, fully-finished dress.

We supply the pattern, instructions, and all fabrics and ruffled-lace needed.

And just for your information, a completed dress like this would normally cost several hundred dollars, depending on decoration, trim, etc.

Please note:
1) - depending on your skill and experience level, the 4 tiers of ruffles can require a lot of time to complete (you may not completely finish your skirt in class).
2) - this workshop does NOT include bodice instruction. The course is designed to work in conjunction with our 'Bodice Construction' or 'Bodice Design, Patterning, and Construction' seminars.
