Gothic Halloween Sweetheart Corset and Pleated Mini Skirt Set

This pattern set combines a sweetheart overbust corset with a matching pleated mini skirt for a dramatic gothic Halloween look. The corset shapes the bust with a curved sweetheart neckline, while the short pleated skirt adds swing and movement, so the two pieces read as one coordinated outfit or work separately with other garments in a wardrobe. It is drafted for women who enjoy structured, costume-leaning silhouettes.

Firm, stable fabrics suit the corset best, with coutil, brocade, heavy cotton twill or satin-backed drill giving the clean lines the shape depends on. The skirt can be cut from a crisper mid-weight woven such as taffeta, gabardine or cotton sateen so the pleats hold their folds. Wear the set for Halloween parties, costume events, alternative club nights, photo shoots or themed gatherings where a bolder outfit is welcome.

Sizes run from XS to 5XL (XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on A4 paper, and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
