What is an American armhole?

One of the most beautiful elements of cut in women's clothing, perhaps, can be called the American armhole.

The American armhole is a deep, diagonal, but at the same time smooth cut, extending from the armpit to the neck, leaving the shoulders open. In this case, the armhole line is cut almost along the raglan line, and the shoulder seam is always very short, approx. 2−2.5 cm.Photo: commons.wikimedia.org This special cut, bare-shouldered, owes its popularity to the inimitable Marilyn Monroe: the American film actress, singer and sex symbol appeared in the film "Seventh Year Itch" (1955) in the famous waving white dress with an American armhole and deep V-neck, making created way incredible sensation. The American armhole favorably emphasizes the beauty of the shoulders and arms, makes the image incredibly feminine and sexy. That is why such a cut is very common in evening and wedding fashion.
