Things I wouldn't wear on a bet, but still want to make:
A tiered skirt.
A more-than-a-full circle skirt, assembled from trapezoids in such fashion as to use every square inch of the fabric.
Shorts with two sewn-in aprons, to look like a skirt.
Culottes. About every tenth time that I pass the full-length mirror in the hallway, I eye my slacks and envision strategically-placed inverted pleats. For some reason, slash-and-spreading circular fullness doesn't come to mind.
A sleeveless dress with a collar that comes down to my elbows and has right-angle points front and back. (Actually, I *would* wear that one, but not to any place where I'm likely to be invited.)
(And I no longer have the figure for it.)
