Helpful Information
How does a basque waistline change the look and feel compared to a natural waist?
The V-shaped basque visually narrows the waist and elongates the torso, creating a dramatic princess silhouette. It also distributes skirt volume lower on the hips, which helps the mikado fall in sculpted folds without puffing at the seam.
What’s the best way to steam mikado with lace and sequins without leaving water spots?
Steam from the inside on low, keeping the head 1–2 inches away. Avoid concentrating steam on the same spot; use continuous motion and let the fabric cool completely before moving it. Over lace motifs, place a press cloth between the steamer and fabric to protect sequins and stones.
