An elastic casing would finish the top edge, with midi and maxi proportions kept within one design rather than separate products. Lightweight cotton, chambray or soft viscose could be explored for different levels of drape. The guide would focus on calculating and distributing gathers, keeping horizontal joins level and finishing long seam allowances. Mixing fabrics is an optional styling direction, but their weight and behaviour would need to be compatible so one tier does not pull against another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanned construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoined horizontal tiers with planned gathering ratios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElastic casing at the waist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMidi and maxi proportion views\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSide seam pockets positioned in the upper tier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat your order covers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe planned delivery is a PDF sewing pattern and an English sewing guide.
