Fit & Measurements

Sheer Size Guide

Start with the garment. Compare the flat measurements on the product listing with a similar piece you own that fits well. Sheer Fit is an estimate based on those measurements, the cut and construction; it is separate from the tagged size.

How we measure

Measure a similar garment laid flat and gently smoothed, without pulling or stretching it. Compare like-for-like flat widths in inches. Follow any qualifications on the product listing.

How to measure a dress laid flatA dress outline with horizontal measurement lines at the bust, waist and hip, and a vertical length line. Measure a similar garment laid flat without pulling the fabric. BustWaistHipLength

Bust — across the garment from pit to pit.

Waist — across the fitted or narrowest waist. An empire seam sits above the natural waist and is noted where applicable.

Hip — across the fullest part of the hip; flowing skirts may be less fitted here.

Length — from shoulder or the stated top edge to hem. Follow the starting point in the listing, especially for strapless or adjustable pieces.

Flat widths are not doubled. A 17-inch flat bust is approximately 34 inches around the garment; this is not a guarantee of fit on a 34-inch body. Compare with a similar garment and read the fit notes.

Body size reference (optional)

These are approximate body measurements, not flat garment widths. Do not halve this chart to create garment measurements: wearing room, stretch, lining and cut vary by piece.

Details

An incredibly rare romantic vintage Valentino Miss V gown from the late 1990s (estimated). Crafted in luminous silk satin with exquisite hand-applied pearl beading throughout the bodice and sleeves. The softly structured silhouette features a square neckline, short sleeves, and a fluid A-line skirt that falls into a subtle train. Finished with a delicate satin bow and pearl detail at the back waist, this piece embodies Valentino’s iconic bridal elegance from the turn of the millennium — timeless, feminine, and quietly dramatic.

Material: Silk satin with hand-applied pearl embellishment
Fully lined

Condition

Very good vintage condition. Minor signs of age consistent with a pre-loved garment. There is some dirt to the hem of the train from dragging on the floor when worn. This will come out with a reputable dry cleaning - confirmed by our specialist! Normally, this would be done prior to sale but as the rest of the garment is in excellent condition we do not want to wear the fibers with excessive cleaning when there's a chance it'll be hemmed. Beading remains intact and secure overall. Beautiful condition for age.

All Sheer Vintage pieces are secondhand and may show signs of age, previous wear, and storage consistent with vintage items.
