I bought a heap of skirts at the charity shop recently, more for their zips & fabric than anything else, but one of them I like and now want to wear it. It's too big (size 18) which currently sits a bit loose on my hips, and I need help to alter it to make it sit more on my waist, or just below - preferably in the form of a how-to video! It's a non-elastic waistband, with a zip. It's also too long, but I was going to cut it & hem it with lace to hide my wobbly stitching!

Edit - It's also lined, with the lining in the waistband, so if I cut out the waistband I'll have to redo the lining too. Maybe I could put pleats in the front of the skirt?
