Subject: Measurements of vest etc
In reply to: thanks 's message, "I have a pink vest/tie combo I want to try to sell (size 8). Is there any web sites that sell the boys stuff?" on 12:23:53 09/11/08 Thu

Here are the measurements. I took them laying flat on a table.

Black Shirt - size 10, 65% poly/35% cotton, black buttons, comes out of the dryer without needing ironing, button down collar. Sleeve length from shoulder seam to end of cuff is a bit shy of 18 and a half inches. Neck is about 13 1/2 inches if I tuck the tape measure under the collar and pull it around. My son wore it when he was a size 8. I just go up a size on dress shirts - seems like they run small.

Pink Vest - size 8, silk pale pink in front, black inside and on the back, buckle on the back, 5 buttons, two pockets. From middle of the shoulder seam to the tips of the points on the front is 18 and a half inches. Across the chest in front from seam to seam (just under the arm holes) is 16 and 1/2 inches. Across the back (just under the armholes) is 15 1/4 inches. From the armholes to the bottom of the vest on the sides is 7 inches. From the mid shoulder seams to the bottom of the back, straight down, is 15 1/2 inches. The armholes (sort of on the diagonal from top to bottom) are 8 and 1/2 inches. Across the shoulder seams is 3 inches.

Tie - The already tied one is 13 1/2 inches long. The self-tie is 44 inches and was never worn.

Hankerchief - 8 inches square - never worn.

Just be aware that the buttons on the picture of my two sons are different now. Those buttons were the BLING buttons I put on. My son loved this vest and had a blast with all the attention he got from the girls and having a bit of his own bling. FYI, the bling buttons are about $5 each in the stores in the US. You can get them for half that at cuteasabutton.com. The new buttons are glass with a touch of pink.
