1970s does 40s Red polka dot skirt suit - Extra small

Waist up to 26" tight
Hip up to 38"
25" long
Fabulous condition after reconstruction to professionally undo bad alterations (someone hacked the sleeves off leaving them raw, but they are now finished with matching cotton binding tape as pictured- very neat, and you'd never know!). The odd v small faint mark, the back neck has minor discolouration which isn't seen when worn, and the fabric behind one lapel is a little wiggly, confined to the underside however so not seen on.
