Choosing a Bias-Cut Silk Skirt for Your Wedding

Choose a bias-cut silk wedding skirt by settling five details: where it sits on the waist, where it ends with your shoes, whether the diagonal seam stays, what lining is included and how the waistband meets the corset. Those decisions describe the skirt you will wear more clearly than the word "maxi."

Start where the two pieces meet

Try your planned corset or mark its lower edge on a fitted top. Decide whether the skirt waistband should remain visible, touch the corset or sit behind it. A longer corset edge may overlap the skirt differently at the front and sides; the drop-waist guide explains the vocabulary for that conversation.

The Room 22 silk maxi skirt listing describes a made-to-measure bias-cut skirt with an elastic waistband, silk exterior, silk-habotai lining and a standard 110 cm length. The length can be adjusted, and the diagonal seam can be removed by request. Tell us which length and seam finish you want when ordering.

Set the finished length in the full outfit

Measure and photograph the hem with your wedding shoes. Say where you want it to fall at the front and whether you need a clean floor-length back. Keep the waistband position fixed while you do this, since moving the skirt higher or lower also moves the hem. Follow Room 22's measurement guide for the body measurements requested for your order.

The Etsy page sells the skirt on its own. If you want the full pairing, send Room 22 the skirt link, your chosen corset, shoes, waistband position, hem point and seam preference for a quote covering both pieces.
