the skirt looks great... i like the low placement upon the hip a lot... in looking at your drawing vs. the skirt you've made here, they seem to be a little different from each other. now keep in mind i am modeling stupid, but i think your drawing has a little more "style" to it than the skirt model itself. in the drawing the sides are more open and not connected except by strings/thongs/ties which seems to balance better with the nice simple strings that your top has. as i said i have nary a clue as to how easy or difficult it is to model such things, and i am honestly just trying to give you constructive feedback and not criticism - far from my intent... it is just that you held true to the top's design, and i think that in part what has captured people's imaginations is your sketched out idea... at least that is what it is for me since i can only truly speak for myself... and with the skill you've shown in modeling the top, i've every faith that you could do the skirt as you sketched it above if that is the direction you decided to choose to go... :))
