Fans of original stylish clothes in ethnic style opt for boho skirts. They are unusually comfortable, distinguished by their color and multi-layered nature. The model has held a leading position in the fashion world for a number of years. Let's figure out exactly what models of skirts of this style are offered by designers this season. Skirt in boho style The non-standard approach to the cut of this style makes the skirt unlike many models. It is distinguished by its originality and natural materials. It is a combination of several balls into a single composition.
What makes it attractive is the fabrics from which the model is sewn. They are always bright and have interesting designs. Floor length, a distinctive feature of the classic model.
DIY boho skirt
This model allows you to fantasize with the cut. Sewing it at home is not too burdensome. To sew a skirt, they use various decorations, taking into account their taste preferences.
You can even sew it from old jeans; they will serve as the basic basis for cutting the skirt. A pattern in the “sun” style is perfect for creating a model. Skirts made from strips of fabrics of different textures and colors look beautiful. By cutting out a circle around the waist in the middle of the sewn “rays of the sun”, and finishing the hem and waist line, you will get an original, stylish skirt.

The boho style is diverse, contradictory and, I believe, each admirer has his own. That doesn’t stop people from arguing along the lines of “this is boho, but that is not.” So I’ll try to make my own boho skirt. I cut off the bottom of the pants to create a very “mini” skirt. I selected three rags that matched the color of the pants, and painted half of one with Dylon indigo paint. We got four colors.
We decided that we would make the sun - that means the length from the floor to the bottom of our denim skirt + its radius along the bottom cut, and multiply by two. It turned out that I needed a canvas 130cmx130cm. We tear the main fabric (I have the most of it) into 50 cm squares (here, for the photo, I took a smaller piece so that the details could be seen more clearly). Fold a square with a strip of fabric of a different color with the right sides facing up and secure with pins so that they do not move when sewing
We randomly lay out two lines, bend them as our heart desires:
We cut off the excess fabric from the outside of the stitches (do not throw it away, it can later be used for subsequent scraps), stepping back from the seam by 1 cm:
Our denim skirt has double stitching, which means you can continue to stitch it in the same way and the style won’t suffer. Fold the left seam allowance in half inward and secure with pins. Then, when sewing, you will need to take them out one by one (you can, of course, baste, but then it will take longer).
From the wrong side, cut out a piece of fabric located inside between the lines, leaving 0.5 - 0.7 mm.
We process the cuts using a zigzag machine.
We take a strip of a different (third) color and repeat everything: pin it, lay two randomly wavy lines, cut off the excess from the outside of the seams on the front side, fold the cuts inward and stitch them to the edge, on the wrong side we cut out the middle between the lines and process the cuts with a zigzag. You can repeat as much as you like, placing strips of fabric at different angles and making different curves until you decide that the original square looks patchy enough.
We took squares with a side of 50 cm, the canvas should ultimately be 130x130 - which means we need 9 of these squares (with a reserve for sewing them into a single canvas)... These are the ones I got:
I think that you can put them together again using strips of fabric, but I just put them together by overlapping them. We place one square on top of the other by 5-7 centimeters, pin it together, draw the desired line with chalk, and lay a line (when assembling, there is only one). And then everything is the same as before: we cut it off on the front side with an allowance, bend it, and stitch it to the edge. On the wrong side, cut off the excess and process it with a zigzag.
So we collect the squares one by one into a common canvas. This is the “blanket” I came up with:
In the center we cut out a circle with a diameter equal to the bottom section of the denim skirt (which is former pants, but let me now call it a skirt so as not to confuse you);
Now we need to carve out the “sun”. Everything is simple here. We attach a thread of the required length to the center (the length is marked with a knot) and draw along the thread with chalk like a compass:
Cut along the chalk line:
We cut off the inner cut of the circle of the underskirt with the lower cut of the denim with the right sides. We attach, turn, and add a finishing line:
"Sun" is ready. As I usually do with the “sun,” I put it on a mannequin and moistened it with a spray bottle so that the skirt would hang down, but when it dried, it turned out that this was completely unnecessary. Apparently, the abundance of stitching creates a kind of “reinforcement” and the hem is not stretched out at all. Now it's time for the frill and lace. Here an unexpected obstacle awaited me. After spending half a day visiting my favorite handicraft stores, I discovered that it was impossible to buy decent wide lace for a reasonable price. And you need to forget about vintage ones altogether. There are either terrible synthetics, or they are worth their weight in gold... I was already completely desperate and thought about replacing lace with sewing, but then I was lucky. Apparently it was fate for this skirt to have exactly the lace I wanted. I dropped into the shopping center for coffee and, naturally, couldn’t help but run through the shops. At Zara, on sale, I saw Indian dresses made of perfect cotton heavy woven lace for absolutely ridiculous money. True, they didn’t suit me in color, but I decided that cotton would dye well and took two of them. After all, sales are a big deal!
I’m not a fan of lace dresses, so at home they were quickly and mercilessly disassembled into their components:
And painted. It turned out very vintage. In addition to the lace I was looking for, I also received a lace top (I didn’t rip the top of one dress, but I also dyed it) and a knitted “tube” made of wonderful thin cotton (the lining of the second dress - then I’ll sew another T-shirt).
All that remains is to cut out the frill, sew lace to it in two layers and sew the frill to the hem of the skirt, folding it in folds. Please note: the lace is thick, so I sewed it a little lower so that when folding the frill it would be below the seam and would not thicken it:
Straps from the dress were sewn onto the junction of the hem and the jeans, and lace pieces from the back were sewn onto the pockets.
Now the skirt is ready, now let’s quickly build a suitable belt for it. We take my husband’s old belt (just make sure it’s not his last)), and ribbon yarn. I found a matching chenille color:
We remove the buckle from the belt, shorten it and make new holes according to the measurements we need:
We cut the yarn into pieces of 4-5 cm and glue it with “moment” glue, decorating the place of the cut:
We glue the end of the thread and begin to wrap it tightly, having previously coated the belt with glue (for some reason I’m not good with glue, I always get all smeared, and then it doesn’t come off well from your hands, but I hope you’ll be more careful
We make a fringe from the pieces, not forgetting to apply glue to the leather base:
The buckle is still too civilized - we’ll give it a “boho-ness” (or “boho-ness”?) with two-phase antique paint:
The result was a completely vintage (extremely tattered) buckle. We fasten it in place and the belt is ready:
This is the result of my work, whether it’s just boho or not, I still don’t understand... In any case, I combined jeans (from Depp), lace (from Helen Bonham Carter), fabric with small flowers (from a children’s sundress) and shreds (from an unidentified girls). Incl. The task seems to have been completed. The entire event took 6 two-hundred-meter spools of thread! In the second and third photos there is a skirt with the same top that remained from the dress (tucked in and untucked):
New clothes on the child. At our little photo shoot, she made a splash on passers-by, I hope you like it too. Once again my post turned out to be indecently long, sorry, and thank you very much for your attention to those who got to the end
