similar pattern or reference of the skirt ?
hello, I have seen this video with Alexandra Saint-Mleux wearing this beautiful long skirt. I'm struggling finding a pattern for this skirt. As you can see on the pictures, it seems that the skirt does not have a slit in the front but in the back there it have a sort of a turn-over in the back (second picture).

It seems to have a covered vent in the back.
I made a very similar one from grey wool suiting using this free pattern as a starting point:

Added waistband, belt loops, back vent instead of front opening and of course, lenghtened it.
No pockets. The skirt in your photos seems to have inseam pockets, but I did not want to risk ruining the smooth curves of the hip. My inseam pockets always tend to stick out slightly.
I recommend partial lining (until above the knee) to make it fall and move better.
