SIZE: All measurements taken with garment lying flat:
Bust: 32.5" (82cm) - fits slightly larger because of princess seams Waist: 26" (66cm) Armpit to shortest part of skirt: 29.5" (75cm) Armpit to longest part of skirt: 41" (104cm) Waist to shortest part of skirt: 22" (56cm) Waist to longest part of skirt: 31.5" (80cm)
For reference, my measurements in the photos are 33"-26.5"-36" and I just managed to squeeze into this.
CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition.
I just noticed what looks like the remnant of a gold trim next to the flounce - it appears the previous owner may have removed a bow or other embelishment from there. See last photo. Not noticeable unless you study the waist closely. Garment has been washed and is ready to wear.
