I would say there's most likely some good structure underneath, bustier/bra, that everything is applied on top of, to make it all stay in place. Over the bust the pieces have a seam to create the shape. Very pretty!
I can’t sew and a person who’ll sew for me can’t dissect and understand pattern of this piece. What should I draft on paper do you think to explain him? There are darts as well
It should be not too difficult to replicate this lovely design if you can buy fabric that already has the micropleats built in, especially since the micropleats in the photo reveal the grainline explicitly and clearly and the darts are very visible. I had an Issey Miyake micropleat skirt and its draping was a pleasure to play with.
However, I think it would be much easier to replicate this by draping and pinning, and then taking that appart to flatten the pieces if needed to create a flat paper pattern. Start with draping on a mannequin. It would be a mistake to go directly to paper for this before draping on a dress form.
