The story:
We love how the pastel pink went with the muted khaki and the dark black on this dress.
It's sweet but with a hint of something more. Something deeper, maybe even a little dark, and yet so welcoming and warm.
The flutter sleeves will flatter almost anyone (we know because even our fat arms looked good heehee) and the almost burlap/hemp fabric gives it an edgy feel.
It's pretty in an undercurrent kinda way.
Pinned?: No. But it was belted to show how it looks when worn with one.
Measurements:
All measurements are taken with the garment laid flat.
Please DOUBLE the measurements provided to get the approximate circumference measurements.
Alternatively, you can take a piece of your own clothing, lay it flat, measure it and make a comparison.
Approx. Size: S - M
Bust: Up to 18in.
Shoulders: 13.5in.
Waist: 8 - 16 waist. Elastic waist. Has 2 belt loops at the sides.
Top Length: 15in
Total Length: 39in
Armholes: 9in.
Sleeves: 3in.
Cuffs: 10in.
Hips: 24in in the lining. Skirt itself has a bit more give.
Material: Not stated but likely Polyester/cotton mix. Looks and feels to be a little like burlap/hemp.
Origin: Japan
Tag: None.
Lining: Top unlined. Bottom lined.
Transparency: Translucent. Will need a slip at least on the top as the weave is quite loose and will reveal what's underneath.
Condition: Very good. 1 brown spot at the edge of the hem at the back of the dress, almost like it's part of the pattern!
