♛Measurements

Fits a range of sizes due to stretch and your preferred fit. Obviously if you are smaller it'll fit more loosely, and larger figures will have more a body conscious, snug fit. My guesstimate is sizes XS to smaller end of M, but always use measurements to judge. We did not stretch fabric completely tight for measurements. Allow room for fit and ease as desired.

Bust (underarm area measured flat, then doubled) about 34" slack, 42" stretched

Waist 25" to 29"

Hips to about 42"

Length, shoulder to waist about 17" and will blouse slightly on more petite figures as shown

Length, shoulder to hem about 44"

Shoulders about 13"

Sleeves about 9"

♛Condition

Really nice vintage condition for wool from this era, presents beautifully. Cleaned and fresh. 80+ years old.

To note: a super tiny darn near shoulder I'm pointing out in the photo close-up. There are slight signs of wear/use as to be expected. A small and faint water type spot just above the rear hemline. See photos!
