Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Cutting clothing on the diagonal, or bias, requires mad skills. Because it unleashes the wild side of the cloth, the freedom and the unpredictability that requires the maker to cooperate because there is no control. Shamask came to minimalism from precise tailoring that’s reflected in his menswear as Ronaldus Shamask, where you see precision tailoring the likes of Bond Street, London. So he does more to play the fabric, like sewing pieces together on the straight of the grain before turning it diagonal to see what happens. That’s what he’s done in this series of spiral dresses and tunics, and it does add some quirkiness to how they hang and it reduces the tendency of uncompromised bias cut silk to cling.And unlike almost all other clothes, bias cut looks better when the size is a little small - not slightly large. It needs to skim close to the body or it will hang on a smaller person. This is a heavy 2-ply silk crepe, not quite as weighty as 3-ply but thicker than blouse weight silks. It is supple and full-bodied, nothing blowsy or flimsy about it. 22 to 28” across the underarms, relaxed or pulled. 44” long hanging but will get a few inches shorter on. A well-defined and not slippery 19” across the sleeve edges. I provide all this information so that you can get it and love it, so I hope you use it. Please ask any questions – that helps me write better listings. The sewing form measures 38-30-39, FYI. I am not a professional seller. I do this because I am weak and must have money for shopping. So please check your measurements and understand that I hope to avoid returns – tho I certainly will accept them, and, unless if I've really made a mistake in the factual portion of the description, I will ask you to share the shipping costs. I avoid future relations with people who send things back worn or because they didn’t read the description. Please keep in mind that eBay keeps up to 20 percent of each purchase for letting me – and you – use this wondrous platform. And that the post office doesn’t ship free for me or eBay; eBay promotes promising it because people think they’re getting a deal with ‘free shipping.’ I also shop here on eBay and try to behave like so many of the great sellers and buyers I've had the privilege and good luck to deal with.
