Asymmetrical designs in fashion can be seen in various slanted styled skirts, blouses and cardigans with one side having a different cut than the other.
In a world where mainstream fashion is also governed by the practical issue of cost that puts symmetrical designs ahead because it’s good on the budget, the asymmetrical fashion designs are like an indulgence.
