Shanna's support structure is welded steel, so it withstands quite a bit of pressure from the tightness of the skirt canopy panels. So, for hers, the answer to how to tightly drape it was, make the understructure extremely strong. As it was her thesis project, and I was not directly involved in its production, she would be the best person to contact for more specific questions, which you can do via her portfolio website, here:

Best of luck with your version, it's a super-cool piece!
