Introducing a New Draping Method
The hammered silk skirt was made using a placket behind the measured ruching. Inspired by the trendy cord ruching that I am seeing everywhere but wanting something a little different and more refined, I came up with a new technique that looks especially incredible rendered in hammered silk. The skirt has the measured ruching along the right side of the skirt, lifting the ankle length skirt asymmetrically to show the leg while adding volume and dimension to the skirt.
A fabulous textile like a fine hammered silk displays best when a technique is used to show the drape, pattern and weight in a way that conveys the characteristics of the textile to people other the person wearing the garment. A person wearing the garment will always know how the fabric feels, but someone walking past won't notice the luxe nature of the fabric unless it is communicated through the design and drape. Think of a fine silk chiffon floor length skirt billowing in the breeze as someone walks past you. You'll immediately recognize that the fabric is soft, airy and light as a feather. The same can be done with a controlled drape such as ruching or the measured ruching technique I used in this skirt. The drape captures the light and showcases the buttery softness and texture.
The skirt is kept simple other than the ruching with a desire to keep the skirt effortless. However, the 'simple' nature of the drape doesn't mean it's simple to accomplish. The mannequin needs to be prepared for the individual measurements of the client, meaning I sometimes need to pad the hips to match her individual measurements. After the measured ruching is done at the front right, the fabric needs to be hand draped on the prepared dress form to get the three back waist pleats and the lower left side pleats perfectly coifed. The reason this needs to be done individually for each skirt is because as the measurements change, the entire drape shifts in ways that wouldn't work well in a pattern grading.
After the skirt hand draping is perfected, the skirt is completed with a one inch waist belt and matching silk charmeuse lining. An invisible zipper is installed at the left side, completed with a black hook and eye at the waist belt. Finally, the seams are all finished and the labels are hand sewn into the belt and seams. After the garment is carefully checked for errors, fit and quality, it is carefully wrapped in tissue paper and shipped out to the special client.

I am Nathalie jacques, from Canada , Toronto. I want to share my testimony about a great hacker.
Being a victim of a scam can be devastating and horrible, you were given empty promises before investing and
Once you invested they usually stop replying to their emails, calls, and text. That shows they’ve achieved their aim
to scam and hurt you. I have been there too as I was too ambitious and wanted financial security which made me
invest $70,000 of my life’s savings. I never thought I would be getting back on my feet by getting back my stolen
funds as I already lost hope until I found a recovery team and contacted them which was a leap of faith as I wasn’t
going to go down without a fight for my money, (computerspeciallist@engineer.com )is the fund recovery expert
that helped me retrieve a significant sum of my investment back. Have you been scammed before and you want
the money back? computerspeciallist Recovery is the best solution, they are fast and reliable with anything connected to
hacking. Contact via (computerspeciallist@engineer.com)
I got conned recently by a cryptocurrency trader to who I got connected online. It got me depressed for weeks until a friend of mine told me about Cyberwallfire, a team of professional hackers who helped him to recover his stolen bitcoins two years ago. I contacted them immediately and provided all the information they asked for, and within 48 hours, all the money that I lost in bitcoins investing in a fake cryptocurrency platform was recovered completely. I’m super excited and decided to share this information with everyone. Cyberwallfire was very helpful and quick in recovering my funds, they are very efficient and trustworthy. I urge everyone who has previously been conned online to reach out to them to recover their money. Reach them directly at cyberwallfire(@)techie.com
