jacket -
bust: 42" (meant for ~38")
length: 27"
shoulder: 16"
sleeve: 23"

waist: 28" - just shy of 29" taut

condition: freshly dry cleaned + ready to wear. a few flaws to note, but still presents nicely + priced accordingly.

a few spots didn't lift -- most notably along the back hotsell of one sleeve cuff -- but they aren't noticeable when worn. the top button is missing, but i hated to take one off the cuffs or pockets. lastly, there's a touch of wear along the edge of lining's underarms. see pics!
