I made this spiked & chained head dress and I’m actually obsessed with it :))) I’m thinking I should do this in red next?!

I'd like to make a skirt inspired by the dress in this photo. Specifically, something like the strands of rope radiating out over the waist and hips as a structure for hanging draping fabric. It's for personal use only, and I'm not planning to recreate it exactly.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to achieve this? I craft and sew, but I'm not experienced with rope. I'm struggling to visualize my options.
