I know it is a huge claim, but yes, this is a tutorial I will be trying to make the easiest and most elegant wrap skirt you will find. I am not saying this is the only elegant wrap skirt; those living in Indonesia, Thailand, Burma, and Cambodia are accustomed to wearing silk wrap skirts. Traditionally these are simple rectangular shape skirts with no side seams, but what makes them look luxurious is the fabric used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alexa (not her real name), is a friend of mine who has recently been diagnosed with a fatty liver, sludge, and a 3\/8″(1cm) stone in her gallbladder; she is also insulin resistant due to being gluten intolerant. Doctors have told her that she needs to remove her gallbladder, but she is determined to keep it. So far, she has lost 7 pounds (3,2 Kg) but has a long way to go. Her current waist is 36,” but she needs to drop it to a minimum of 30″ to be considered in the normal range for her height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is my way of helping my friend. I am making this adjustable wrap skirt so she can wear it during Spring, Summer, and Fall while she loses weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
