pit to pit measurement approx 14" This dress is a love story. Given to me during a surprise shopping spree for my 20th birthday. I couldn't believe my love was buying me brand new clothes because no one had bought me brand new clothes before. Now we've been together for almost 20 years, and this wonderful dress doesn't fit me anymore. I'd love for it to go to someone who will love it as much as I did. The boning on one side was doing something odd while I took pictures, but that might be it not liking being on the mannequin. Boning could be replaced or removed if need be. In good pre-owned condition, see photos for details From a smoke-free pet-free house
