Just reduced this dress to a crazy-low price as my son moved back home and I need space. This Black Evening Maxi Length Dress is just gorgeous. Vintage 90’s Betsy & Adam by Linda Bernell. Strapless bodice is lightly padded, with a sheer chiffon, halter style overlay that goes over your head (no closure at neck). Fitted Empire Waist is embellished with a bar of vertical Rhinestones under the bust. Full Length, Back Zipper. The tag says Size 8P, but it’s Vintage Sizing and actually smaller. I’m calling it a Small, but please see the measurements before purchasing. It fits my mannequin perfectly, and her measurements are 34-26-35. The dress measures 17” across the chest, underarm to underarm, and 13” across the waist. approx. 34” long from underarm to hem, along the side seam. 100% Polyester and Made in USA 🇺🇸. EUC! Will steam out wrinkles and wrap in tissue, as always, before shipping. Very good price for Betsy & Adam.

Hi there! Do you think this would work for a snug fit on a 32D bust? I’m curious also if the hip measurement includes any flexibility or if it’s a tight fit - thanks in advance!

@linneaeur Hello! I’m pretty sure the bust will be fine and when I am back home tomorrow afternoon I’ll check the hips for you and let you know. Thanks for your interest!
osakagirl
@linneaeur My apologies for the delayed response! There is actually is some give in the hip area. The lining is quite stretchy but the outer part will stretch another inch than the mannequin to accommodate up to 38” hips if some wiggle room is needed. Thanks for your interest!

this is so beautiful but I need a medium or else I would have snatched this up
osakagirl
@jules4nyah Oh, thank you! But yes, I think the one you chose should be perfect!

hi! is the 34” length correct?
osakagirl
@hannahdelector @hannahdelector From the underarm of the dress, yes. So if you wear a sleeveless top and measure from the underarm seam down that should show you where 34” will hit on you. It’s hard with that type of neckline to get a measurement for the full length of the dress. Thanks for your interest!

@hannahdelector (Definitely standard maxi length)

@osakagirl how tall is your mannequin? i’m 5’4 and 34” was about mid calf
osakagirl
@hannahdelector My height 5’6” so I’ll recheck the measurement on my lunch break. It’s 100% a maxi

@osakagirl hi we’re you able to try it on?
osakagirl
@hannahdelector So, so sorry! This is my third job and I totally spaced on this yesterday. Just getting up now and as soon as I make my coffee I’ll check!
osakagirl
@hannahdelector So it’s 48” from the top of the bodice to the hem. It fits me a a maxi. I messed up on the measurement from the underarm to the floor — it’s 47” long. I’ll fix the listing when I rotate my closet later. I was wondering why no one scooped this up when I reduced it! They must have thought I hemmed it 🤦🏻♀️

@hannahdelector It’ll he perfect on you with heels.
