The Berries

The Berries, she is a stunning 70s cotton prairie dream, I think she is by C&A although she has lost her brand label.

The Berries, this beauty is just stunning. She has the most amazing vibrant colour and print, with tiered flutter sleeves, stretch rib knit bodice, and unusual ruffle feature at her hem.

This girl would work on UK sizes 6/8/10.

Bust - up to 36" stretchy due to ribbed bodice, could possibly stretch even further.

Waist - 27"

Length -  57"

For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6. 

The Berries has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a 30 degree setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has some minor signs of wear, including small minor fade spots to her skirt at the hem and a tiny sewn up mend. This has been reflected in her price and doesn't effect wear, see last photo for more.

This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.

Here at Pansy we know vintage sizes are very different from modern sizes, and we pride ourselves on offering accurate measurements with approximate modern UK sizing to ensure a your Pansy purchases will be a good fit.
Although we do offer approx modern sizing it is also very helpful if you know your own measurements. If you are unsure of these, an easy way of estimating them is measuring one of your own garments, that fits well, laid flat. Measure in inches, across from pit to pit, flat across the waist and double both of these measurements.  Our length measurements are mostly taken from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem.
