Regular price £219.00 Discounted price £109.50Size: 2
Colour: Black Gingham
Condition: Excellent
Seller Notes: These overalls are beautifully made and are in great condition. I only wore them a couple of times and washed once. I just didn’t wear them, not sure why.
Shipping Notes: These overalls will be shipped by the seller, who is US based. Therefore they will attract an automatic postage charge of £27 (the standard int'l shipping rate) which will compensate the seller for the charges they occur. The seller is not registered for sales tax so there is no tax to reclaim and depending on your location you may be charged import tax and duties by the customs office in your country of residence. Neither the seller nor The Slow Wardrobe has any control over this.
Layercake sizes run from 0 - UK8-12 to 3 - UK 22-26 (0-3 = US6-22)
So please check your measurements against our sizes before you order.
The sizing of the overalls can be a little more involved, so please also read the product description for an explanation.
Details
These overalls come in the usual 4 Layercake sizes. Their length can be adjusted quite substantially at the shoulders, which ensures they can be worn full-length by bodies measuring from 5'2" to 5'10". On shorter frames, there is the option to turn up the legs (they have a 8" facing to enable easy folding/rolling and this also adds to their drape).
The key deciding factor for size is whether the opening at the waist fits over your hips. In the size guide, you can see the measurement of the garment and the corresponding body measurement. As you can see, the body can be larger in circumference than the garment, it will pull on fine and the actual hip measurement of the garment is a lot bigger, so it will easily fit the max hip measurement for each size.
Layercake sizes
Layercake follows a different sizing system, recognising that the traditional system of "ladies dress- sizes" does not account for body shape and height. Read more about the background to this HERE.
Layercakes are designed to fit a very wide range of sizes and heights, from a UK size 10 to 28. Check these garment measurements to give you an idea of their dimensions.
Overalls
These come in 4 sizes - their length is variable by changing the ties at the top of the bib:
| Layercake size |
Garment waist cm/in* |
Garment hip cm/in |
Side length cm/in** |
| 0 | 98 / 39 | 122 / 48 | 112/44 |
|
1 |
110 / 43 | 137 / 54 | 112/44 |
| 2 | 128 / 50 | 152 / 60 | 114/45 |
| 3 | 144 / 56 | 168 / 66 | 114/45 |
* The Overalls are a pull-on style, so your hip measurement should be no more than 3in above the waist measurement of the garment or you may struggle to get them on!
**The Overalls are mean to be worn high-waisted, with the top of the side-seam to be level with your mid-riff ("bra-band" level).
