What are some tips for making a zipper skirt with a small waist bigger?

With the continuous development of the Internet, people's shopping habits have undergone tremendous changes. Now, no matter what they buy, people like to shop online. Especially young people will buy all kinds of things online, including skirts. Because they cannot try them on in person before buying, the skirts they buy will inevitably have a small waist. At this time, how can you make the waist bigger?

Tips to make a small zipper skirt look bigger:

Can.

If you are worried that the zipper will get in the way, you can remove it; if not, keep it. Close the zipper and sew the pull to seal it. Sew the entire zipper shut.

If your waistband is not made of single-ply fabric, open the seams at the waistband and sew the elastic in. If the fabric at the waist is single-layered, you can choose to use the entire elastic band and wrap it with another layer of fabric. Or you can use two shorter elastic bands and sew them on the left and right sides of the waistband to achieve the same tightening effect.

The first type: the waist can be enlarged, but the skirt body cannot be expanded. In this case, some people will choose to insert cloth from the waist to the hips, which will greatly affect the aesthetics. Most people will not accept it and choose to give up the change. If you are not very clear about the pattern and structure of the skirt, you can take a picture first so that I can see it.

The second type: the waist can be enlarged, and the skirt body can also be loosened (such as waist darts). Judging from the skirts we have seen, most of them will have a certain amount of darts.

Now I will introduce to you the second case, the method and effect of enlarging the waist of the skirt if it is too small, so that you can compare it with your own skirt to determine whether it can be modified.

First, let’s take a look at a before-and-after comparison of a skirt with a larger waistline:

Comparing the front photo before and after the modification, it looks very good, and it is basically impossible to tell that it has been modified to achieve the effect of enlargement.

Similarly, take a look at the photo above, which shows the back of the skirt. There are no obvious signs of modification.

But in fact, the original fabric at the inner waist of this skirt at position ① is cut from the original fabric to increase the waistline. At the same time, at position ②, you can see that other colored fabrics are used as the lining for the inner waist. Because it's inside, it can't be seen when you wear it.

Finally, here is a picture of a Korean-style skirt that shows how the waistline is increased by using this modification method, so that everyone can compare it. Also, if the waist of the dress is too small, what method can be used to increase it to achieve the best effect? I'll share this again when I have time.
