Zenith . . . the beauty of the sun at its peak, a set of darts that fan out and give you an unbelievable silhouette.

Suggested Fabrics: Viscose, cotton, Tencel, linen, silk and for the blouse version a nice openwork fabric too. Fabrics that are softer and which flatter the delicate work of the darts and the way the skirt falls. In all cases, choose a fabric that holds the darts well with the heat of the iron.
