Completing the ensemble is a sharply tailored cropped bolero jacket in the same magnificent brocade, featuring a wide pointed collar, three-quarter sleeves with turned-back cuffs, and a nipped waist that transforms the look seamlessly from poolside cocktail hour to polished evening elegance.\u003cbr\u003eIn excellent condition, freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM E A S U R E M E N T S *\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBust: up to 34\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist: up to 27\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHips: up to 44\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength: 46\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits like a small \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel: Betty Higgins Originals \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: silk rayon blend \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: overall excellent, freshly cleaned and ready to wear.
