THE BUYING ANSWER
Start with a clear definition.
Name each layer from the inside out, with its fabric, visible length and finishing requirement. Show which layers share a joining seam. This keeps a layered appearance from being reduced to one ambiguous skirt measurement.
The decision behind the detail.
Changing one layer can affect the visible proportions of the others. Compare the assembled skirt before approving an isolated material or edge.
PREPARE ONLY WHAT IS RELEVANT
Three details to bring.
- Layer list
- Identify each layer in a consistent inside-to-outside order.
- Visible proportions
- Describe the length and overlap to review.
- Joining details
- Mark where the layers attach to the garment.
Check together
- Check that every layer has a material reference.
- Review hidden edges as well as visible hems.
- Record layer-specific changes rather than one overall instruction.
