Fabric Recommendations
The Bernadette Skirt is designed for woven fabrics. Any sort of medium weight woven is suitable. If you choose a fabric like a mid-weight twill or denim you will get a more structured skirt. If you choose a drapier fabric like a rayon challis or silk, you will get a flowier skirt.
