smocked

Example:The unsmocked shirt was a simple cut, without any of the intricate gathering that smocked shirts are known for.

Definition:Describing a style of clothing or fabric that lacks the characteristic small, button-like stitches used in smocking to gather the material. This term can be used to describe clothing that is not adjusted or tailored with the smocking technique.

Example:The ungathered fabric flowed gracefully with the movement of her dance, creating a stark contrast to the smocked bodice that provided her with a tailored fit.

Definition:Describing fabric or clothing that is not gathered, meaning it is spread out or free of any folds or clusters. This term contrasts with the tight, gathered look created by smocking, often seen in areas of clothing that would need to be more flexible and adjustable.

Example:The unassembled costume kit included all the pieces necessary to create a smocked nightgown, but they had to be sewn together first.

Definition:Describing a piece of clothing that has not been sewn or put together to form a finished garment. This term is not directly related to smocking but can be used to describe a child's wardrobe where larger pieces are not yet assembled, deriving a similar principle of not being fully put together or fitted.
