About Sati skirt:
Sati is a bias-cut close-fitting skirt with a slight trapeze silhouette and an elastic waistband. Sati has a luxe finishing with French seams and a pin hem, without the use of an overlocker. Sati is above-ankle length. Model Irina: Height 169 cm (5'6"), Bust 86 cm (33 7/8"), Waist 66 cm (26"), Hips 94 cm (37"). Irina is wearing size 38 in height 3.
Important! Due to the nature of the bias cut and various properties of different fabrics, the volume of the skirt might differ. To ensure proper fit, it’s recommended to baste the skirt out of the main fabric prior to final construction. Cut the pieces with extra wide seam allowances, adding 2 cm (3/4”) on each side of the front and back pieces. Start by basting the side seams along the original stitching line, which is at 3 cm (1 1/8”) from the cut edge. Try it on and if the skirt is too tight across the hips, let out the side seam allowances as needed. Trim the seam allowances down to 1 cm (3/8”) and continue with the construction of the skirt.
Suggested fabric:
To sew this skirt, choose lightweight woven fabrics with the following properties: - soft, opaque, thin, with or without elastane, printed or solid colours; - the fiber content can include natural fibers (silk), synthetic fibers (polyester), and blends (silk + elastane, polyester + elastane, etc.); - the following fabrics are recommended: natural silk, silk satin, synthetic silk, synthetic satin, lightweight silk crepe. The skirt in the photo is made of natural silk. This fabric is soft, opaque, and non-stretch.
