FABRIC/COLORS: Gorgeous art deco geometric jacquard, in soft shades of blue, charcoal, gray, and off-white. Made from lovely soft Beacon blanket fabric - they are generally cotton or cotton blend, and should be machine washable.
TAGS: Genuine Beacon Fabric
CLOSURES: N/A, designed for wrap front. It does have self-fabric belt loops at the side seam if you want to add a sash tie.
CONDITION: Structural seams are all flat felled, meaning fabric edges folded inside and stitched down, as if often done with denim. A 1" section of outer seaming is open on the right sleeve near the cuff - see closeup. Inner seam is still intact. I also see an area of focal fading on the left cuff - see other closeup. No stains, holes, tears or other issues noted.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
