Geometry-based cut[edit]

Lisa Shahno doesn't use the traditional cut and pattern-making, based more or less on the alteration of a garment shape to the shape of a human body, including classical cut hooks such as a tuck. All of her pieces are based just on simple geometry, with no curved lines. This method is entirely alternate to the usual principles of pattern making. Such way of pattern-making is close to folk clothes designs, which were based on the similar principles that made clothes making comparatively easy and allowed to save fabric, by using almost all the surface, leaving not much little межлекальные выпады.
