I remember my palazzo pants being rather difficult to manage, but at least the opposing bulk of fabric seem strangely enough to help. Anyway its a minor point.

From the pictures & sketch I could not tell, but you mentioned "inner leg". Did you overlay the skirt to an existing pant leg or replace the existing leg with an open skirt?
Overlay might solve some of the problem posed above, plus make the garment hang and move easier in general. However, it would detract from the wearer's distinct feel of wearing two separate styles of garment.

I would add a flowing, femine sleeve to one side of the jacket as well. But I have to have Taoist balance that others don't. Even so I am not sure which sleeve I would add. Above the skirt it would complete the flowing line of that half of the garment. But on the opposite side it would balance the yin-yang both vertically and horizontally.
(actually perplexed by my own questions on this one)

no idea what your talking about there xD
sorry....

In the shadows beneath the trees he waits.
In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.
