Helpful Information
How does ruching affect the fit and sizing of the skirt?
Ruching is one of the most forgiving design elements in formalwear. The gathered fabric naturally accommodates slight variations in measurements while creating a smoothing effect across the midsection and hips. For this style, follow your standard measurements—the stretch satin jersey combined with strategic ruching will contour beautifully to your shape without feeling restrictive.
Will the transition between the sequin bodice and satin skirt look seamless?
Absolutely! The bodice is designed to sit precisely at the natural waist where the ruched satin begins, creating a deliberate and polished contrast. This two-fabric design is intentional—the sparkle draws the eye upward while the smooth satin elongates the lower body. The combination photographs beautifully and creates visual interest without appearing disjointed.
