In a previous post I mentioned that I won a very vintage frock coat made by Kambriel, back from her old business name days (Atrocities). Firstly, I don't think I mentioned that I won it with a RIDICULOUSLY low bid. My winning bid was only a fraction more than the shipping cost from Chicago.
Secondly, it's a men's coat. I knew that. I messaged the seller to ask about measurements, and he didn't know how to take them, but let me know he fits a men's large suit, with a chest of about 44". Okay, my bust is 43", and I figured if the shoulders were too big, I could take the coat to a tailor and talk about having them taken up. Or maybe it would fit the Stroppy One!
The coat arrived yesterday. I do not know how a dude who wears a men's large ever wore that, because it fits my freakishly tiny shoulders. It fits everywhere. Like it was made for me. I am beyond gleeful about this.
