Fitted waist and a really fantastic full skirt sewn in tiny gathers. Back zip to fasten. Handmade piece, no labels.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.
SIZE
The dress is not labeled with a size but fits approx like a Small. For your best fit please refer to the measurements.
Fit on model:
Chest: approx 32" flat (there is a little bit of extra fullness to the bust, so would fit a 32" well)
Underbust: 30.5"
Waist: 27.5"
Hip: free
Shoulder to natural waist: 16"
Length: 41"
(There is a 1" hem on this)
CONDITION
Good condition. Dress is handmade so neck, and sleeves are finished with bias binding and handstitching. Hem is also handsewn. The zip has been replaced and is handsewn in at the back, see photo. I'm not sure if the back of the neck may have been altered and lowered slightly?
