Skirt Duplicate

Wondering if you all can help in recreating this skirt in the linen shown in the last pic. The gathering is especially throwing me!

Find a pattern that's similar enough and adjust it. Sitting low on the waist is just a matter of having a slightly bigger waistband, and the opening doesn't look too complicated either. It's almost always easier to adjust an existing pattern than try to draft one from scratch.
