Circle Skirt Patterns

[Grant Fan]

Forgive me if this has already been touch on I have looked and couldn't find it. Anyway o have been. Looking for a good circle skirt pattern. One that can be worn without a crinoline and still look vintage, and I would prefer it not have pleats as I tend to feel pleats make my hips look huge (though of course there are always exceptions and as a whole I find pleats attractive). The first picture is me wearing one of my favorite skirts (store bought) and the others are simply pictures of skirts that I like. So what patterns do you ladies recommend and where can I buy them? Thanks in advance.

GHT wanted to pass this on:
My wife says that Vogue 2902, would be useful. It's a vintage pattern of the mid 50's, that can be a dress with a circle skirt, or just the skirt. Tell her that if she just puts: "Vogue dress pattern 2902," into the search box, all the relevant info will come up.

Yes it is, it was a birthday gift a couple of years ago from my parents

Is this the one? No skirt pattern but I bet I could make one by adding a waist band

I sometimes find the youtubes to be a great resource. They teach how to measure and cut one out. Here is a video of one from A Vintage Vanity

That was helpful and on an off note I love the TARDIS print on that skirt

I can vouch for that youtube tutorial. I made one myself from it. I just added a wide elastic band for the waistband though so cheated slightly!
