Italian term

indossato

Italian to English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion description of garments
I have a lot of examples of the term "indossato" but, without pictures I really have no idea what it means. Sometimes I think it means "fitted" or snug?

Some of the examples:
Il modello è caratterizzato da un ricamo realizzato a mano con  pietre swarovski color aurora boreale su tulle nudo, per la spalla e fianco destro indossato.

il capo presenta un incrocio sul davanti, il lato destro indossato sormonta il lato sinistro

l' abito in maglieria e' caratterizzato da una linea a tubino con una sola manica lato sinistro indossato

caratterizzato da profondo scollo a V davanti e dietro con ricamo motivo frangia in tono che dona movimento sul lato destro indossato
Proposed translations (English)
3 when worn
5 fitted

when worn

To me it means "once the garment is worn", in other words what it looks like once on.

Good question....sorry but I don't know. And can't find anything on the web, either.

That's very kind of you ;) Thank you
Note from asker:
Thanks. but then is it really necessary? for example, embroidery on the right side (right side when the dress is on) Or does it mean the right side of the person wearing it and not the right side when looking at it?
I suspect it is redundancy but I asked the client so, if and when I get an answer from them, I'll let you know.
Could you please enter this as an answer. I wanted to give you the points for this (it was correct and I went with on the model's right/left) but the way it is entered I don't have the options for selecting this as correct answer. Resumbit and the points are yours. And thanks again

agree dandamesh : anche se l'esempio e' diverso credo che la regola sia quella delle RX http://fermononrespiri.com/topic/11777-lettere-negli-esami-r... un eccesso di precisione più che ridondante, sarebbe come dire "sulla modella/ manichino"
