THE DETAILS
Two-piece Blumarine set featuring a structured cropped jacket with ruffled hem and a matching skirt. Large jewel snap-closure buttons on the jacket. The skirt has a side-zip closure. Textured virgin wool blend with subtle stretch. Virgin wool refers to wool that has not been previously processed or recycled. It is often used in Italian tailoring for consistency and structure. The skirt is lined with a sheer black silk, and the jacket has a branded Blumarine monogram lining.

SIZING NOTE
SIZING NOTE
Flat lay measurements in description, chart is below.
The size shown online is matched to the chart (not always the same as the tag). Vintage sizing is all over the place, so go by the numbers for the best fit.
What are flat lay measurements?
Flat lay measurements are taken with the garment laid flat on a surface. Bust (pit-to-pit), waist, and hips are measured straight across and then doubled to show full circumference. These line up with the size chart below.
Other details like inseam, rise, sleeve length, and hems are listed as-is in the description.

SUSTAINABILITY
SUSTAINABILITY
I’m not about to pretend I live a zero-waste, hand-weave-my-own-toothbrush lifestyle. I don’t.
What I can do is push you toward vintage and secondhand instead of buying new. It’s one of the easiest ways to keep clothes in circulation, cut down on waste, and feel a little less guilty about the pile in your cart (as long as you shop it here, obviously 😏).
FINAL SALE POLICY
FINAL SALE POLICY
All sales final. Consider this your commitment ceremony.
Read the policy if you like fine print.
REALITY CHECK
All sales are final.
This is vintage/secondhand. One-of-one, not mass-produced. Returns and refunds aren’t industry standard, and here’s why:- Every piece is unique. There isn’t another one in a warehouse waiting to replace it.
- Most sellers aren’t marking up like big-box retail. Those guys add 100% - 200% on top (yes, that $80 shirt is $20 of fabric and $60 of audacity). They run on volume, steady supply, and a built-in returns budget. Vintage and secondhand margins are slimmer, closer to 30–60%. There’s no extra cushion to eat returns.
- These pieces aren’t meant to rack up frequent flyer miles. Every extra trip breaks them down, which kills the point of keeping them alive.
So: check photos, read the notes, ask questions if you need.
This isn’t fast fashion with a 30-day return label. It’s the opposite (and that’s the point).SIZE CHART
Tags are cute, measurements are facts. Think of this chart as a cheat sheet. A "size 6" in 1999 and a "size 6" today are not the same species.
