I really like wearing linen in the summer. Here are some linen skirts I made a while back. They have been modified a couple of times, but this is how they first looked like.
The natural linen coloured fabric one is gathered at the waist and has a drawstring to further secure the skirt from falling down. I always put pockets in my skirts, and since I carry my phone, keys, etc., I need to keep the skirt up.
The navy blue one has a waist band. Since I fluctuate in sizes in my waist, I since made a modification. It's now a split side skirt...
And yes, both are made from linen curtain fabrics from IKEA. Cheap linen, but it's good for skirts or pants.
