Read surface, weight and drape before choosing the silhouette.
Doverist starts from fabric.
Doverist is a womenswear brand that starts from fabric, then reads cut and movement together.
01
Brand definition is not a slogan; it is how a garment holds together.
We ask whether a material is too heavy for this cut, where the shoulder should sit and whether a loaded pocket distorts the garment.
Swatches and pattern drawings set the direction. Standing, sitting, lifting an arm and walking complete the question.
Cut
Shoulder, length, elbow and pocket are considered together.
Wear
Stand, sit, lift an arm and walk. A sample completes the judgement.
