♛Measurements

About a modern size M; please allow room for ease and the kind of fit you prefer. Interior fabric allowances + darts allow tailoring larger or smaller. Make sure you allow for enough room to get the kind of fit you like.

Bust (underarm area measured flat across front, then doubled) about 36"/37" 

Waist (measured across front seam and doubled) about 29"/30"

Hips to about 42"

Shoulder to hem about 37 1/2" 

Shawl measures 38" wide by 21" long

♛Condition

Overall great vintage shape with extra-fine Lurex -- no picks, pulls, fade, tarnish, or other issues, as are often seen.

Nitpicks: subtle hints of its previous life! It appears this was taken out slightly at bodice via side seams, and the velvet straps have a minor crease near where they are sewn to rear bodice, probably from someone having worn them shorter in the past.
