<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 2475450, member: 5398"]Thank you Debora. You'd think the slip would be bias cut, but it's not. I wondered if it was cut on the straight grain to keep the lace from stretching too much. The material is "sturdier" and heavier than typical silk slips. It looks like the type of silk that was used to line jackets and coats.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
