Hi Lisa :) 

OK flat measurements (unstretched) are as follows:

Bust: 31inches; Waist: 24inches; Hips: 31 inches. The material is stretch bengaline, stretchy but holds ya in, as they say! It breaks down as 74%Cotton, 22% Nylon and 4% spandex and feels like the same quality as my PUG bengaline dresses. I usually fall between XS and S sizing (I'm 34-24-35 at the moment) and used some of the stretch in the bust and hips, but not the waist when I wore this, if that helps. It's marked as 'dry clean only' on the care label, but like all of my PUG/Vintage cotton-based dresses, I handwashed it cool when it needed a clean, and it came out perfectl (eh, I cannot afford a vintage dress habit AND a dry-cleaning bill!)

It's a really lovely dress, the neckline is very unusual and I love the collar. Only letting it go because my new hair colour clashes with the red collar. Trying to sell on a lot of my red dresses/tops, which is why I had to wave goodbye to the Evelyn. *weeps*

Let me know if you have any other questions ^_^
