Known as “LA’s Queen of Tie-Dye,” Carolyn created wearable art that captivated the era’s most iconic musicians. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCarolyn was a coveted tailor for artists such as The Eagles, Jim Croce, America, Bread, The Beach Boys, John Denver, Three Dog Night, and Sweetwater’s Nancy Nevins and Alex Del Zoppo — who later became Carolyn’s husband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe shop opened in the 1960's and closed in the early 1970s due to a family illness. This dress and only a handful of others she dyed have been carefully stored away ever since by Zoppo. Now, for the first time in decades, you have the opportunity to own an original one of a kind- hand dyed and hand sewn Mihitabel dress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMeasurements\u003cbr\u003eTaken flat and doubled, so these are the measurements all the way around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBust 34\" (measured 1\" below the armhole)\u003cbr\u003eWaist 36\"\u003cbr\u003eHip 46\"\u003cbr\u003eSweep 80\" (full — moves and swings)\u003cbr\u003eLength 57\" (shoulder to hem — floor length)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFit\u003cbr\u003eWoven, no stretch. Best fit is a 30.5–32\" bust. Cut as a trapeze, so it hangs from the bust and skims everything below — the waist and hip numbers are room, not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNo size tag — these were made by hand and sized by measurement only. The numbers above are the whole story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBuying this without trying it on\u003cbr\u003eLay a dress you already love flat, measure straight across the bust, double it, and compare to the number above. That comparison beats any size chart, mine included. Ask me for any measurement I haven't listed and I'll take it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFabric- 100% Cotton (No Stretch)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54205037838652,"sku":null,"price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/3700\/0252\/files\/IMG_5555copy.jpg?v=1788053004","url":"https:\/\/bellaroicollection.com\/products\/sky-was-yellow-vintage-mihitabel-dress","provider":"Bella Roi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
