Such a lovely colour! Candy striped in green and white step in romper or playsuit, with original buttons.

The straps are an early manmade ribbon, you can see that they've been adjusted historically a couple of times but I've left as they are as they seem a good length. The darts have also been opened to the thigh when you look closely, and while they could be very easily reinstated I left as is as they make the sizing a little more flexible.

Measures: labelled 36, I'd say a modern uk10

Bust 34" approx 

Waist 27" max

Hips 40” but will accommodate 42-44” max due to unstitched pleats  

Shoulder to waistline approx 13"

Front rise 14"

Length from shoulder to hem approx 30"

Condition: 

 Overall very clean with signs of previous adjustments on straps at edges, as shown.

Dart has been unpicked as shown, not obvious at all as is pleated. Could easily be reinstated. 

One pull to fabric as shown. Generally good, immediately wearable! 

 

Please note, I will always combine postage where possible and refund any overages. Please ask if you’re unsure.

Postage to the US has increased recently so apologies for the high price! I send everything tracked, and will send your reference once your order has been posted - along with any refunds owed.
