About a modern size XS to S. Please allow room for movement and ease and the kind of fit you are going after.

Waist about 25"/tight 26"

Hips full

Underarm of halter bodice measured down to waist seam 8 1/2"

Condition

Great vintage shape overall, well-preserved. Clean and crisp. 70+ years old.

Noted: a little scrape-y boo-boo below waist seam to one side (see photo). This is located in a spot that you can cleverly cover up with a silk flower or brooch…OR just ignore, this babe is going on 75 years old! The side metal zipper was swapped out at some point with a newer grey nylon zipper.
