All accessories (belts, jewelry, crinolines, pins, etc.) are for style inspiration only unless indicated.

♛Measurements

Tagged a Euro 47, which isn't a size I've personally seen before. Seems to be about a modern M to L; please allow room for ease and the kind of fit you desire.

Bust (underarm area doubled) to about 44"

Shoulder to hem about 23"

Shoulders about 16 3/4" through seams

Sleeves, shoulder to cuff about 26" and will grip at your wrists to puddle beautifully

♛Condition

Great vintage condition. White and bright. About 40 to 50 years old, but owner said was never worn.

Noted: a sesame seed-sized imperfection in the weave below the rear collar.
