Hips to 42"/taut 46"

Shoulder to waist seam about 16"

♛Condition

Great vintage shape overall BUT sold as-is -- she had a few flaws near the hem. Cleaned. 40+ years old.

Dress essentially looks crisp and pristine to the eye, but the skirt had 2-3 small holes at side skirt above the hem that I carefully mended, borrowing matching fabric from inside allowances. The mends aren't noticed during wear/use but are factored in the pricing. A great way to get the look for less!
