Different outer skirt edges: choose the sequence of layers

Different outer skirt edges create a stepped sequence in front of longer lower areas here. The densely decorated bodice travels more vertically towards the waist. Fine lines cross the shoulders, while broader long panels begin beneath the upper arms. The arms stand slightly to the sides, allowing long arm panels to fan beside the body and reveal several boundaries. The image establishes neither separately supplied garments nor confirmed detachable construction; only the pictured arrangement is visible.

Compare the shorter outer boundary with an evenly long skirt first. Do you want precisely that interruption or mainly the larger side extent? Lower your hands on the actual model and notice where the edges settle. A temporarily held fabric panel does not automatically explain the drape of a finished garment.

Assign a confirmed sample to its intended area. Outer edge, underlying layer and arm panel may use different versions. Ask to see the actual connections, then add intended shoes and walk several steps. This selects the edge sequence on the whole outfit instead of deriving every movement from a spread stationary photograph.
