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.

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.
