FABRIC: Striped cotton fabric, cotton candy pink and white. Trim is a stronger pink.
CLOSURES: Metal zipper in back.
CONDITION: There are a few tiny scattered rust spots on the skirt front – see close-up. The hem was taken up at some point and then let back down – you can still see a subtle crease. The underarms are very faintly yellowed – you can’t see it unless you look closely.
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.
