If the thighs are really straining, go up a size and bring the waist in
Made from various fabrics, from breathable cotton to luxurious silk, they offer flexibility in style
Fabric behavior rules I follow If the fabric is too soft, the placket waves and the collar collapses If the fabric is too stiff, the skirt stands and looks heavy If the fabric has low recovery, the elbow and waist bag out fast Recommended fabric ranges by price tier Shrinkage and color are not small details Poplin and twill can shrink and twist if the finishing is not stable Dark colors in cotton can fade faster if dye and wash are not controlled Denim needs shade control across lots, or reorders look different What are the biggest fit and construction risks, and how do I control them
With its breezy high-low hemline and delicate ruffle accents, this piece is as versatile as it is beautiful
I was able to order my usual sizean 18and I feel like the dress fit me perfectly
