This is how I would do it: I would use an SVG element. The clipPath have clipPathUnits="objectBoundingBox" and the path have all it's values between 0 and 1.

 svg{position:absolute} .section-test { padding: 25px 0; background-image: url(https://res.cloudinary.com/ddioeulgw/image/upload/v1548437500/test/hero.png); background-size: cover; height: 85vh; clip-path: url(#clip); }

 <svg height="0" width="0" > <defs> <clipPath id="clip" clipPathUnits="objectBoundingBox"> <path d="M0,0 L0,.5 A1,1 0 0 1 1,.5 L1,0 0,0" /> </clipPath> </defs> </svg> <section class="section-test"> </section>

I hope it helps.

clipPathUnits="objectBoundingBox" : This value indicates that all coordinates inside the element are relative to the bounding box of the element the clipping path is applied to. It means that the origin of the coordinate system is the top left corner of the object bounding box and the width and height of the object bounding box are considered to have a length of 1 unit value.
