Description: Actual Measurements Bust 54 inches. Total length 44 inches Hem circumference 85 inches To make sure something will fit, take measurements from a piece of clothing that fits you well and use those measurements to compare. If you use your personal actual measurements, you should always figure needing two inches extra for breathing room. Label- Dillad Dwyryd Cymru. Wool, Made in Wales. Dillad translates to "clothes" Dwyryd translates to "Two', but it is also a river in Wales. Cymru is the welsh word for Wales. Closes with black plastic buttons down the front Fabric is a medium heavy weight wool. Fully lined in black nylon satin. ConditionNo stains, or tears. I show a close up of a small hole in the front, under the buttons. It is very hard to spot with the strengthening black interfacing that is under the wool fabric buttons. I also held this cape up to bright light and spotted several other small holes in the wool fabric. I show several photos where the light shines through. It is really hard to spot these in natural light. There are just a few other holes that I did not photo. The top black button has whitening spots. It looks like white spray paint, but it does not come off and is part of the button. A manufacturing error I think. The buttons have a small back button that strengthens the top button. This bottom button is missing on the top 2 buttons. What Diane Likes About This CapeA cape such as this is steeped in chronicle and lore. These kind of woolen capes have been made in Wales for hundreds of years. They have a mystery about them. The long length of this cape covers and hides. It is sturdy and practical, yet the pattern is intricate and delicate. It provides warmth when traveling in the cold months and can function as a blanket. When you put on a cape like this, you just don't feel the weight of the fabric, but the weight of its history. "Fashion is the armor to survive the reality of everyday life." Bill Cunningham "Clothes mean nothing until someone lives in them." Marc Jacobs This cape is heavy at over 3.5 pounds before packing. It can ship ground advantage or priority mail. Both options are offered. I am always happy to combine shipping. I have a large amount of vintage clothing and I am always adding new pieces!
