Covered shoulders with long sleeves and patterned bands

The pale front covers the shoulders and continues into long billowy sleeves with gathered wrist edges. Vertical patterned sections frame a deep central opening, while a wider patterned band crosses the waist. Repeated horizontal bands also appear further down the long skirt. A high front leg opening reveals part of a leg with coloured cords around the ankle. One hand sits near the hair and upper edge; the other is behind the side.

Unlike the main rear reference, this image offers no narrow line crossing a bare shoulder top. Its visible pattern supplies another surface preference. The complete lower finish and feet are outside the crop, so the apparent length should not replace a full view. Neither the bands nor fine-looking areas identify fibres or a particular construction technique.

Request the entire front and back of a similar actual candidate with your shoes. Examine the deep front edge and arm arrangement while standing normally. Then decide whether the covered shoulder or the patterned skirt is the detail you wish to retain in your own selection.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the repeated band pattern appear in the sleeved reference?

Patterned bands run vertically over the upper body and horizontally across the lower skirt in the sleeved reference. Their appearance alone identifies no particular lace technique.
