English term or phrase: show-stopping sweeps
En un artículo sobre un diseñador de moda encuentro: He displays his penchant for sharp-edged tailoring, show-stopping sweeps and statement accessories. ¿Alguna sugerencia para "sweeps" en exte contexto?

Muchas gracias,

Explanation:
For me, the sweep is talking about the actual line/hem of a dress or skirt, etc. Other possible options for 'sweep' could be 'capas' or 'volumenes'. Good luck- it's a tricky one!
