Women's 80s Jump Suit Corset-Style Waist Vintage Harem Pants Edgy Avant Garde Extra Small VFG
This 80s vintage jumpsuit is so editorial! The cap sleeve bodice has padded shoulders and a sexy keyhole opening in back. The wide corset-style waist is accented with white swirls in front. The petal wrap front pantlegs have some similarities to the Indian dhoti, but these are pleated into the corselet waist.
SIZE: Labeled size 4. Measurements are challenging due to the design - for example, the pantlegs are each made from a single piece of fabric, so I can't do a precise front rise, inseam or outer seam.

CLOSURES: There are two small buttons that close the keyhole bodice at the back of the neck, plus a 8" zipper that goes down from the waist.
CONDITION: I found two pinholes on the left bodice front, visible only when holding it up to the light - see closeup, done with white cardboard underneath. No 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.
