{"product_id":"stella-blue-vintage-mihitabel-dress","title":"'STELLA BLUE' VINTAGE MIHITABEL DRESS","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOne-of-a-kind dress — hand-dyed and handmade in the 1960s by Carolyn Lee at her legendary Sunset Boulevard custom shop, Mihitabel. Known as “LA’s Queen of Tie-Dye,” Carolyn created wearable art that captivated the era’s most iconic musicians. Mihitabel 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 closed in the early 1970s due to a family illness, and these rare garments have been carefully stored away ever since. Now, for the first time in decades, you have the opportunity to own an original Mihitabel creation — a vibrant piece of music and fashion history.  \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\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 33\" (measured 1\" below the armhole)\u003cbr\u003eWaist 36\" (sits 16\" down from the shoulder — natural waist)\u003cbr\u003eHip 46\"\u003cbr\u003eSweep 76\" (full — moves and swings)\u003cbr\u003eLength 53\" (shoulder to hem — ankle length)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFit\u003cbr\u003eWoven, no stretch. Best fit is a 28.5–31\" 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\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFor reference I added a photo of sold out 'CHATEAU' Mihitabel Dress as the fit reference.
