Perhaps it shouldn't come as a surprise. It wasn't that long ago that it was deemed completely appropriate to wear Lululemon leggings everywhere. But with tennis skirts, one could argue there is more of a best-of-both-worlds compromise to the look, between wanting a super-short hemline for the post-pandemic debut of Pilates-toned legs and not feeling quite ready to give up the comforts of athleisure. Also, with those built-in shorts, couldn't it be that the tennis skirt—and its cousin, the golf skirt—is truly the last, and only, acceptable way to incorporate skorts into an adult wardrobe without feeling like a second grader? Maybe these early adopters are onto something after all. Start with the right-hand front bodice piece and using a disappearing fabric marker, draw lines from the inward and outward points of the zig-zags at the side seam, following the length shown on the pattern, making all lines finish evenly.Keep two fabric pieces right sides together. Fold by half. Start marking on the wrong side of the top side ( which is now on top) https://gandolfi.co.uk/product/all-leotards/gandolfi-navy-official-enrico-sleeveless-leotard-plain-front-with-belt-928/ To make this cross over top you need a regular bodice as well as an overlapping cross over overlay. You can make this overlay in a sheer fabric or contrast coloured fabric or the same as the main bodice decorated with trims ( as I have done with a lace trim).The overlay is slightly gathered in the bottom edge with a piece of elastic. If you fall in between sizes, you can also cut between the lines, and you can ‘grade' from one size to another by, for example, cutting a large in the waist curving out to an extra-large at the hip if you need to.

Pin the center of the elastic so that it is on the center of the bodice bottom edge. Pin in place at the middle. Stretch to the sides as far as the elastic will go. Now stitch the elastic to the edge stretching the elastic with a zig zag stitch. This will gather the front bodice hem a little. Seam allowances– 5/8th of an inch throughout unless mentioned. Use stitches appropriate for stretch such as a narrow zigzag or a stretch stitch if your machine has one. I have attached lace . You can simply turn under the edges. If the fabric doesnot fray you can leave them as it is as well. Adjustmentsto length. The dress is designed to fit an average height – I am 5'6″, and hits above the knee. If you are taller or prefer the skirt to be longer, simply add some length to the skirt piece at the bottom.With right sides facing, pin skirt side seams. Try on for fit, adjust as necessary and sew side seams.
