Fitted Then Full

A bustier bodice on fine straps above a full skirt that stops at mid-calf. The waist seam sits low on the hip, and that drop is what gives the skirt all of its sweep.

• Structured bustier cups — shape the bust and hold the neckline up on their own, with no strap cutting across the shoulder or the back
• Dropped waist seam — sits below the natural waist and lengthens the torso before the volume of the skirt begins
• Full gathered skirt — takes its fullness from the hip down and swings out as you walk instead of hanging straight to the calf
• Fine shoulder straps — steady the bodice through a long evening without breaking the clean line running across the neckline
