The simple method

Clip, balance, drape.

  1. 01

    Open each clasp gently and decide where the fabric should meet.

  2. 02

    Take a small, stable fold of fabric at each side, then close both clips fully.

  3. 03

    Let the chain hang without tension and check the placement in a mirror.

Four placements

One detail, four different lines.
