Geometry becomes a compelling component of pattern making. In this garment, the geometric component is the circle. The skirt is a spiral that wraps around the body three times, up and down along the yoke. The beginning of the skirt is a spiral coming off the front yoke. The end tucks discreetly under the front layers. The asymmetrical placement of the yoke point adds to the drama of the skirt panels.
Keywords: Spiral, Structure, asymmetry
