tuxedo styling for a woman's body. this scalloped, sculptural shaping echoes a technique popular in 1940s design, though the dramatic scale of this particular piece sets it apart from more typical uses of the style. curved seams like this are notoriously difficult to execute cleanly, there's no straight line to hide behind, and the slightest tension miscalculation shows immediately as puckering or a neckline that won't lie flat. wool crepe was the right choice for exactly this reason: it holds a sculpted curve without stiffening or losing its drape, letting the shape read as clean and
