Unlike regular box pleats, this pattern features pleats placed lower down.
The design intentionally alters the lines to allow the pleated sections to open.
The side sections have slightly curved lines.
We recommend using fabric with a bit of stiffness rather than soft fabric for making this.
Use 22cm invisible zip when making this pattern.
After printing, paste it according to the pasting line,Cut and use.
The pattern has a seam allowance, so it can be used as is.

(3) Sew the "Body" and "Body" side together up to the sewing stop position, then press open the seam allowance with an iron.
(4) Serge/overlock all hems, fold up 1cm, and stitch with a sewing machine.
(5) Apply topstitching beforehand.
(6) Serge/overlock the entire pleated fabric, then attach the pleated fabric (hand sewing gives a neat finish, but iron bonding is also acceptable).
* When attaching the pleated fabric, ensure that it does not peek out from the front when overlapping the hem portion.
* This design intentionally creates a slightly widened appearance, so if there is no pleated fabric, apply interfacing and extend the attachment.
(7) Apply stay tape only to the zipper attachment side (left), sew up to the sewing stop position, press with an iron, then attach the zipper.
(8) Sew up the right side as well and press open the seam allowance with an iron.
(9) Attach the skirt belt and attach four belt loops to the "Body" at the sewing position.
(10) Sew the "belt" with a bag seam, then reverse and stabilize the shape with topstitching, and attach the "belt" hardware.
* For the "belt" hardware holes, using eyelets etc. will give a neat finish.
