I drafted patterns (you could easily use commercial patterns) for a tank top (the 2 white and 1 teal tops), a wide-shoulder (the beige and blue dress), and a slip-style top (the first photo, green mandalas). Sometimes I do elastic in a casing above the bust and add shoulder straps (beige pinafore and olive green). Some skirts are wide enough that I can take out a panel and use it to make short sleeves or a yoke.
I try to keep nice details, like the sash-turned-collar on the olive green; it has some gold embroidery and had big wooden bead decoration; I replaced the wood beads with gold and olive glass beads, for a less rustic look. I also did just a little gold embroidery on the front neckline.
Some of the Indian boho skirts have a lining/slip of matching gauze. It’s usually been dyed with the skirt, so is a perfect color match and can be used for a yoke, bodice, straps or saved for another project.
I made a few dresses a couple of years ago where I cut the bottom off an existing blouse, and attached a skirt to the cropped top making it a yoke or bodice.
My previous skirt into blouse or dress posts:
wow, the clothes look a lot better on the mannequin than just on hangers!
I’m currently working on fitting a slim-leg pants pattern that will look good under all these floaty tops.
