FABRIC/COLORS: Nylon "Run-Proof Tricot", in a warm shade of cream. Lace and nylon chiffon trim.
TAGS: Munsingwear
CLOSURES: Five tiny domed pearl shank buttons on the front yoke of the bodice.
CONDITION: Excellent. I don't see any stains, holes or tears. A few scattered picks on the chiffon but none seen on the rest of the fabric. There are fabric loops for a sash set into the side seam - I would suggest using a satiny ribbon.
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.
