What role do the 'elastic string' and 'stopper' at the hem play when actually worn?
This question is asked when unfamiliar names of notions are written in the product description, making it hard to grasp the construction and causing curiosity about how they change the fit.
They serve to narrow the hem circumference or adjust the overall shape of the garment by pulling the elastic string and securing it with the fastening device.
An elastic string refers to a stretchy rubber string, and a stopper refers to a notion that secures that string at a desired position. Simply put, it is a method where you pull and tighten the elastic band inside the hem and then lock and secure it with a button-type fastening device.
MOONDAL's Fluid Layered Top in Black features stoppers and elastic strings on both sides of the hem, allowing you to directly adjust the hem circumference[1]. When you pull and tighten the string, the hem gathers inward, creating a voluminous silhouette. If you loosen the string, the hem falls straight down, returning to its original relaxed shape.
hmmm, it is a thoughtful feature that helps you arrange your desired length and volume without necessarily having to tuck the garment into your bottoms.
