Max Studio Midcentury Dark Academia Bookstore Girl Black Dress, Size S

Measurements (laying flat) approx: shoulder to hem: 35 in. - pit to pit: 18 in. - waist: 16.5 in. - sweep: 36 in. - sleeve length: 10 in. - fiber content: 68% rayon, 29% polyester, 3% spandex This is well-made and has both structure and some real weight to it; it's not true vintage yet, but is old enough to come from when Max Studio was a Nordstrom brand rather than Nordstrom Rack. The empire waist is elegant and hella comfortable; if dark academia is partly an attempt to bridge scholastic formality with goth coquetry, this fits the bill. I would be down to be "shushed" by a cute librarian wearing this, is all I'm saying. tradgoth romanticacademia mallgoth coquette alt aristocrat darkfairy egirl emo goblincore masquerade scene secretary spooky uptown girl victorian witch
