This garment has been carefully laundered and dried in the North Carolina sun! Although care has been taken, since this garment is not new there may still be pills, loose threads, or lint. When purchasing a vintage garment, or any garment, follow the measurements not the size. Size specifications have changed over the years and a vintage garment may have been altered to fit the original owner. Also, remember to leave ease between your personal measurements and the garment's. For example, a top that is 40" in the bust area will not fit a 40" bust...it will be tight. A 42" top will fit better. Also a vintage garment was designed and cut to follow the body silhouette of its time period. For the best fit, undergarments from the same time period are suggested. When purchasing a vintage garment please remember that it is old. I may have missed a fade or a flaw. I may have misjudged the year. I am happy to be corrected. All garments are vintage items and sold...AS IS. I maintain a non-smoking, pet-free studio, but I have no control over where the items I offer for sale were previously. I attempt to represent my goods as honestly as possible, but sometimes something will get by. If you have any doubts about an item, e-mail me BEFORE YOU PURCHASE.
