the dissh maison black ramie bias skirt, new with tags. style DQF05145BK.600. dissh sell it at US$181 on their us site, where it currently shows limited quantity.

cut on the true bias, which is the whole reason it hangs the way it does — the cloth is turned forty-five degrees to the grain, so it falls in a long spiral around the body instead of hanging straight down from the waist, and it moves when you move.

the waist is a narrow encased elastic with an adjustable drawstring tie, so it sits where you want it rather than where the pattern says. mid rise, falling to a maxi length that flares gently at the hem.

main: 100% ramie. lining: 100% ramie. quoted from the garment's own label, and it matches dissh's published spec exactly. ramie is a bast fibre like linen, spun from a nettle relative — dry to the hand, cool to wear, with a faint natural lustre linen does not have, and it holds a crisp drape rather than a soft one.

dissh describe the cloth as semi-sheer, breathable and non-stretch. it is fully lined in the same fibre, but it is a light, open weave and worth knowing before it arrives.

sizing — read the measurements, not the number. the sewn label reads AU 10 / US 6 / EU 38. dissh's own us website lists this same size as 10/M. the two disagree, so go by the garment: dissh publish it as waist 72 cm (28.3 in), hips 99 cm (39 in), centre front length 105 cm (41 in). those are garment measurements, and the waist has elastic and a drawstring on top of them.

the care label is specific and worth following: cold gentle machine wash with similar colours, mild detergent. do not soak or bleach. do not leave wet. line dry in shade. do not tumble dry. steam back to shape. dry cleanable (P).
