Women Mulberry Silk Midi Slip Dress

• The midi slip dress is the piece that shows fabric weight most clearly. The same pattern cut in 16 and 22 momme reads as two different products on the rail, and the difference is visible in a photograph.

  
  

  Why 19 momme usually wins

  
  

  19 momme skims the body without clinging and stays opaque enough for retail photography. 16 momme is lighter and cooler for summer ranges but shows every seam and lining edge; 22 momme drapes more heavily and suits a straighter, more structured cut.

  
  

  Straps and fit

  
  

  Double spaghetti straps with adjusters solve most of the fit complaints that single straps create: the dress can be shortened without re-cutting. A V-neck cut on the bias follows the body better than a straight-cut neckline, but it also makes grading less forgiving — check the sample at the largest size, not the smallest.

  
  

  Lining

  
  

  A half-lining at the bodice keeps the dress opaque without the weight or cost of a full lining. If the range is aimed at evening wear, a full lining changes the drape and should be sampled first.
