Here is another one of my favorite brand , Alfred Dunner. It is so pretty and also has black beads. They just look like black circles in the pictures. You can count on them staying on. I suppose it is possible for them to come off but not likely. The armpit to armpit measurement is 23 1/2 inches, the sleeves are 19 1/2 inches and it is 25 1/2 inches long. It is 100% cotton and can be hand washed. It is in very good condition.
