Stunning! It looks like a 6 in today's sizes! what is the circumference of the waist?

@mhanlon Thank you! I can double check and let you know on waist size. Have a good rest of the weekend, -Joe

Hi Joe,
My guess is that it is a British 12 which is a US 8 and an 8 from then is a 4-6 now. I am getting married anti is seriously beautiful but know it won't fit as I'm a US 10. Thanks for the generous offer!
Perhaps have a known 4-6 try it on and market it as such!
They don't make them like they used to!

@mhanlon no worries can measure it and let you know

@mhanlon You were absolutely right, this winds up being roughly a US size 4-6. I updated the measurements and clarified the size in the listing. Thanks for letting me know : )
