What is "cut"?

Cut refers to the way in which a garment is shaped and constructed, which ultimately gives it a particular style or silhouette. The cut of a garment can have a significant impact on how it fits and flatters the wearer's body, as well as on its overall aesthetic appeal. For example, a garment may be cut to be form-fitting or loose and flowing, with various degrees of draping, pleating, or tailoring. The cut can also determine the length and shape of sleeves, collars, hemlines, and other details. A skilled cutter can use their expertise to create garments that highlight the best features of a particular fabric, flatter the wearer's body shape, and convey a certain style or mood.
