It completely depends on the following:
How long you want the skirt
How wide the fabric is
What your waist measurements are
Whether you want to do a 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, or full circle skirt
Most apparel fabrics are 42 inches wide so this limits the length (how long) the skirt will be.
As for 2.5 yards, for example: if you have a 44" inch waist and wanted a 16" skirt, you'd need 3 yards of 42" fabric. Hope this helps!

How many yards of fabric does it take to make a full length sleeveless bridesmaid dress?
The amount of fabric needed will depend on the style of dress you are making, the size, and other factors. If you are making a simple dress with a skirt that is not full, it won't take as much fabric as one that has a fuller skirt. In order to buy the right amount of fabric for the dress you want to make, choose the pattern and the amount of fabric that is needed to make it will be listed on the back of the package.
How many yards do you need to make a skirt?
It depends on the style of the skirt. A snug mini-skirt, for example, uses much less fabric than one of those full circle skirts that comes down past your knees and billows out around your waist when you spin in a circle. The best way to figure this out is to find a pattern for the specific skirt that you want. Each pattern has a table telling you how much fabric you need. You can see a table that summarizes data from hundreds of patterns on this blog: http://afterthedress.blogspot.com. Look for the skirt link in the right hand column, near the top of the page. Good luck!
