Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE A piece of fashion history. Ms. Kamali’s first collections to hit big were exaggerated 1940s looks made in inexpensive fabrics – because she was broke! It's the story one used to hear. That’s how sweatshirt dresses and skirts, mattress ticking and seersucker dresses and pants were born. And, yes, parachute nylon ripstop. We were crazy for the showing up naked under a coat fantasy at the time, coat-dresses everywhere after Ms. K pulled this classic sexy look from the past. . These were shown over catsuits and slip dresses, with platform Mary Janes or ankle socks and flats. This is that; from the Norma Kamali label before the block letters in a black outline label. While she was hatching and testing her wings. This is a huge version of her classic notch jacket front, with massive shoulder pads still velcro’d in place – or pull them out. Fabulous pockets. The first run, she used ripstop to make matching sash belts and quickly discovered the sashes didn't work at all – not their shape or the slippery ripstop jacket/dress or overalls. The wide elastic belts by her that you occasionally see for sale were the answer. You put it on, with the fronts where you want them and belt it in place. Then you move the side seams to your sides and even out the massive amounts of cooperative, thin ripstop to where you want them. Or wear it open160” (13 feet +) around the hem. 35” across the back underarms for 70” around, 78” across the back hem, 51” from nape to hem. 27” across the shoulders and 20” long sleeves. I provide all this information so that you can get it and love it, so I hope you use it. Please ask any questions – that helps me write better listings. The sewing form measures 38-30-39, FYI. I am not a professional seller. I do this because I am weak and must have money for shopping. So please check your measurements and understand that I take returns only if I've really made a mistake in the factual portion of the description (I got a note from a customer who wanted a refund because I said 'you'll look great in this' and she didn't) I also shop here on eBay and try to behave like so many of the great sellers and buyers I've had the privilege and good luck to deal with.
