I decided I needed a light gray skirt so I used some lt gray suiting fabric that I bought from fabric.com last year. My intention was to knock off a JCrew dress I had seen, but the longer I waited the less I wanted to make the dress. I used Vogue 8603, View A. I cut a size 12 and did not make any alterations in this pattern except to use an invisible zipper. This one went in better than the one for my previous Verite dress. 
I lined the skirt. I followed the directions for the lining, but if I had it to do over again, I would cut a lining piece for the lower skirt. Here is how it came out:

Very pretty skirt. I'm sure you'll wear that a lot!
That's a lovely, feminine skirt and different from the plain old pencil.
That is very pretty. Yours looks considerably more desirable than the one on the pattern envelope.
i love it! The lines are beautiful and so unique. I hope you enjoy wearing it!
Very pretty! I like the rouching (sp?) It will look great... Also, thanks for the comment on my blog (love getting those!)... Can't wait to see what you make, and BTW I am going to buy an obscene amount of patterns too!!!
This is such a beautiful skirt! I like it so much better than the pattern picture. Your fabric matches the style in a better way.
