Well, you did say you wanted 'lovingly worn'!
It has various holes and tears. The worst are: two patches of larger holes near the hem, a tear along one under arm seam, and a tear to tie belt, tear at back of neck under collar, small holes on one side of the pointed collar. The seams are beginning to go in places. There are also some period repairs where someone has lovingly darned the fabric in yellow thread to strengthen it where it was weakening. The print has faded a little here and there. I've photographed all the major and large flaws. There may be some things I've missed, but I hope these give enough of an impression of the state it's in!
It is almost certainly home made. The fabric is lovely, lightweight paisley printed rayon. The sleeves are only very slightly puffed. It has an inner tie, and the outer tie belt is attached at the back.
Measurements:
Bust: 41" Waist: 33" - both measured from seam-to-seam at the back and doubled.
With the cross over front there is quite some flexibility, and it's meant to be worn loose.
Length: 50" from back of neck to hem
Let me know if you need more measurements or any further info.
I will understand if it's too far gone for you! But if you want to give it its swan song, let me know.
