Even careful hand measurements are approximate, as all fabric gives, especially this fabric which is :
Top:
32" shoulder to shoulder
35" bust: armpit to armpit
29" waist
7" peplin skirt length
37" hem, relaxed, no stretching
24" length - shoulder to hem
20" sleeve outseam - top is shoulder to wrist cuff
14.5" sleeve inseam - armpit to wrist cuff
Skirt:
28" waist
44.5" length - waist to hem
120" fullness of skirt at hem, measured flat.
The easiest way to evaluate the fit, would be to measure a dress which fits you well and you feel comfortable in and compare with the measurements I have provided for this outfit.
For reference, my mannequin is a size 10; 37 bust, 27.5" waist, 38" hips
There is a 1.5" mark on the right side of the skirt as illustrated in the photos. Because of the color variance of the irridescent fabric, it is nearly imperceptable.
The photos are of the exact item you are bidding on.
I provide a number of photos, please take a moment to look at them closely.
If you have any questions, or would like additional photos, please let me know prior to placing a bid.
Carefully packed and boxed, and ships promptly via USPS Priority Mail or Ground Advantage Mail, per buyer's choice.
I primarily use recycled packing supplies and do not charge for packing supplies or handling, just actual calculated postage.
Tadashi Shoji is an American fashion designer. He is the head designer for his company, Tadashi Shoji.
Born and raised in Sendai, Japan, he began painting and drawing at a young age. A fortuitous meeting at a Tokyo art gallery led to a position assisting Japan’s leading contemporary artist, Jiro Takamatsu. Tadashi worked for three years in Takamatsu’s studio making conceptual art. Sensing the political unrest brewing in Japan and encouraged by opportunity abroad, Tadashi moved to the United States where he discovered fashion design. He goes on to work with famed costume designer Bill Whitten, followed by the iconic Richard Blackwell.
Troubled by the lack of options for occasion dressing, Tadashi set out on his own, launching his namesake label in 1982. He pioneered a new category of eveningwear; pairing stretch fabrics with fluid silhouettes. He combined couture dressmaking techniques with skillful engineering, making it possible for pieces to be mass-produced—and accessible.
