Vintage 60s Red Cocktail Dress by Henry Lee No material tag - thin material with super fine horizontal rib. Back nylon zipper. FLAWS: The thin elastic cord that decorates the entire dress has some exposed white ends (where the red thread covering it is worn) There is a 1/8 inch hole at the side waist, I have to wonder if the back half of the drape originally met there and accidentally tore away at the hole. Inside the dress there is a dab of paint at the inner neck. No size tag. There is an alteration inside the dress bringing the bust in (extra seam allowance at bust). See measurements : 34" bust, 29" waist, 38" hip, 17" shoulders, 13" across neckline, 17" bodice, 42" long. (model is 5'10" US S/6 and dress fit loosely as shown) Measures 17" underarm to underarm with material flat. Measures 14.5" across the waist. 19" across hip area. 9" vent on back hem. Regarding customs: You are responsible for all customs fees and charges. Please note: We will not falsify customs documents, so please do not ask! If possible, direct your concerns to your government officials who make up these rules and enforce them. Let them know you feel you are being overcharged and see no reason for it. There are many feeling the same way as you and there is really nothing I can do as I am operating my business in an honest manner.
