May we introduce? This is our mini …er Mimi Skirt! Small but mighty, you might say. Because the short skirt can be sewn from a variety of fabrics – whether cotton poplin or coat fleece – and promises with its elastic waistband and side pockets not only comfort, but also brings a touch of coolness to your outfit. It’s wonderfully easy and quick to sew, making it one of our favorite after-work projects.
