Based upon measurements, this dress is likely a modern-day size Small (S) to Medium (M). This dress is a better choice for someone with a thin/slender silhouette. It is not a good choice for someone with large/thick arms or a large bust. It is intended to have the illusion of a slight oversize look, as was typical in the 1980s. Please note the following EXTERIOR measurements: - Bust (armpit-to-armpit) on ONE SIDE is about 17.5 inches (35 inches). Your bust needs to be generally smaller than this measurement in order for this dress to fit. - Waist on ONE SIDE is approximately 15.5 inches (total 31 inches). Your waist needs to be generally smaller than this measurement in order for this dress to fit. - Sleeve length from shoulder to sleeve end is 25.5 inches. - Length from shoulder top to hem is 56 inches. - There is no stretch to this fabric. This dress is best for someone with a thin to classic build/silhouette. - Please compare dress measurements to clothing you already own. This is a used, pre-owned vintage item. There are no rips or snags in the lace. The armpits are clean, unstained, with no wear. The zipper works fine. The metal snap above the zipper is loose and requires a few quick hand stitches. The bottom hem of the satin under-dress is a bit dusty (dress has not been cleaned, likely requires drycleaning, we will leave that to you.) Dress smells clean. Vinatge clothing should be handled and worn with care. Item is being sold from a smoke-free home that does have cats.
