FABRIC/COLORS: Medium weight, nice drape, probably a rayon/cotton blend, based on fiber burn test and hand. Great bamboo print with dangling tropical flowers done in white against a light turquoise background - for a long time, I assumed the fabric was slubbed and that was the reason for horizontal lines of darker turquoise in the background. I eventually realized that it was part of the print, not the weave. Very simple, but effective for a richer tone.
TAGS: No tag, may be hand sewn
CLOSURES: Metal zipper in the back
CONDITION: Excellent. I don't see any stains, holes, tears or other issues.
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.
