The Arbanaise is a short, fitted skirt that transcends the seasons without ever going out of fashion. In both summer and winter, it can be adapted depending on the fabric chosen and, above all, thanks to its numerous variations.
With nearly ten options — with or without ruffles, with one, two or no slits — Arbanaise gives you great creative freedom. It’s up to you to imagine the version that suits your style and to make this skirt a must-have in your wardrobe.
💪 Level of difficulty
There’s nothing particularly complicated about making the Arbanaise. The key points to bear in mind are:
- the fitting of the zip,
- the layering of the fabrics (if you choose the ruffled option),
- sewing the corners for versions with slits.
An accessible project, ideal for consolidating your basics and gaining confidence.
