Description: Actual MeasurementsThis knit fabric has some stretch and give. This is measured laying flat and not stretched. Bust 46 inches. Hem circumference 28 Total length 22 inches To make sure something will fit, take measurements from a piece of clothing that fits you well and use those measurements to compare. If you use your personal actual measurements, you should always figure needing two inches extra for breathing room. Label- No label present. This may have been hand sewn, but I am more on the side of factory made. No closures. This slips over the head Fabric is a thick, soft and fuzzy, knit. It has texture woven throughout. There is no fabric content. It has some natural fibers, perhaps lambswool or angora. Unlined. ConditionNo stains, holes, or tears. This fabric has a fuzzy surface texture that naturally likes to create pills. This one does not have many pills, but there may be a few. I will point out that one sleeve is longer than the other. You can see in the photos that the right sleeve is longer than the left. This has befuddled me. I am not sure if this sweater was constructed this way on purpose. It may be a particularly audacious design choice. When I folded the sweater in half, it confirmed that one sleeve was indeed longer. What Diane Likes About This SweaterThe 80s liked things big and bold, They liked to be experimental and they would often sacrifice body consciousness for those goals. This sweater is just such an example. The designer wanted to play with shapes and textures and wanted to use the body to show those off. It is the reverse thinking of using the fabric to show off the body. You see that in couture or high fashion, but never in the mainstream anymore. This is one of the things I have come to admire about the 1980s. "Fashion you can buy, but style you possess. The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There's no how-to road map to style. It's about self expression and, above all, attitude." Iris Apfel βStyle is knowing who you are, what you want to say and not giving a damn.β Gore Vidal This sweater weighs well over 1 pound and can ship ground advantage or priority mail. Both options are offered.I am always happy to combine shipping. I have a large amount of vintage clothing and I am always adding new pieces!
