Finished study (placeholder)

Placeholder study for a bias-cut satin slip with a narrow skirt.

A short list of decisions, none of them sewn yet: bias cut, a deep V, straps that barely show, a skirt that stays close. The peach is a stand-in for satin in warm light.

Replace the drawing with the designer’s sketch and a photograph when the slip is real. The page is only the frame.
