BTSSB Trump Alice Yukata set, wine red
Description: A lovely old school gem from 2003 in great condition. A cotton yukata with padded collar/eri in Baby's original Trump Alice print, in a classy wine/pink combination. It comes with a two piece obi belt (the belt itself and a pre-tied bow that you tuck in behind the tied belt). The belt is a deep, saturated royal purple paired with a dark raspberry pink and accented with wine rose lace. The cards are a little more pink than most of the pictures make them seem; the worn picture with the yellow obi shows the contrast most accurately.
If you are unfamiliar, a video for how to put on a yukata is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7hGjEESg6o (it takes some practice, but it's a lot of fun!) This one is especially easy because the bow is already tied. :) Here's a video for how to put on a pre-tied belt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UK2lsVAmNR8
Please note that the two strips of fabric used in the video to help hold the yukata in place around your body are not included -- they were not part of the original set either. However, you can use any long cord or strip of fabric, or even elastic bands since they do not show while you are wearing the yukata.
Condition: Very good. I bought it secondhand (but it was brand new, still in the original packaging) and have worn the yukata twice and the obi/bow once. Selling because the obi doesn't fit me that well and I have decided I get more excited about traditional Japanese motifs on my yukatas. It is a bit wrinkled from storage but it can be ironed (and washed in the washing machine! see the tag photo) and the strings to tie on the obi bow are fraying slightly at the ends, but they are not visible when wearing the yukata because they are tucked behind the obi.
This yukata is essentially free sized but it has upper limits. My recommended maximum measurements are below. I don't think I'd recommend this one for someone with larger bust and waist than me, though it could easily fit someone taller than me with no problem, perhaps up to 5 ft 6 in. The belt part of the obi is ideally meant to wrap around the midsection between 1.5 and 2 times, but it wrapped exactly 1.5 times around me which made the strings difficult to tie. The second time I wore the yukata I wore it with a different, more traditional style obi (this is the yellow one in the worn picture; however, only the purple + raspberry pink obi is included in this sale).
Measurements:
Recommended bust: 110 cm or less
Recommended waist: 90 cm or less, 80 cm max if you want to wear the obi from the set.
Price includes shipping within the USA. Please comment or send a message with your country of residence for an international shipping quote.

Length: 167 cm (it's meant to fold under at least a few inches around your waist, so your neck to ankle measurement should be ~150 cm or so, about 15 cm or so shorter than the length of the yukata)
For reference, the dress form in my photos has 88 cm bust and 66 cm waist. I have 108 cm bust and about 96 cm waist.

I will not have access to my wardrobe from 12/1-12/18. Any items paid for after 12 noon US Central time on Wednesday 11/27 will be shipped after 12/19.
* NO HOLDS / NO DEPOSITS / NO PAYMENT PLANS
* NO TRADES unless I specifically state otherwise on the item listing.
* In general, my prices are not negotiable. However, I may consider offers if you notice that the item has been up for sale for a long time (1 month or more). Buyers willing to pay the listed price take priority (= the item is not reserved for you during price negotiation). PLEASE DO ALL PRICE NEGOTIATION BEFORE BIDDING ON THE LISTING. Price is no longer negotiable once a bid is placed.
* From non-smoking home with 1 cat. My cat is not allowed into the room where my items are kept and I do not handle her while wearing lolita so she does not come in direct contact with my items. I personally have a mild cat allergy so I am strict about this for my own comfort. However, I cannot guarantee items will be 100% cat free. If you are very allergic to cats, please consider your purchase carefully.
* I may refuse sale of any of my items to anyone for any reason. Reasons I would refuse are primarily to avoid taking on an uncomfortable level of risk. Examples: a potential buyer has certain kinds of negative feedback, or has no feedback and buys a high value item. If you have no feedback or negative feedback and the above reasons apply to your situation, please send me a private message before bidding to show you have read these terms of sale.
If I suspect you are buying my item to immediately resell it for a higher price, I will not sell to you.
If you have 5 or more negative feedbacks of any kind, I will not sell to you.
If you arrange to buy something from me and then ghost me, I will not work with you again.
* I am not responsible if an item you buy from me does not fit you. It is a risk we all take buying things online. I do my very best to indicate accurate measurements and describe fit to the best of my ability when possible.
* Because I am a private individual seller (not a store), all sales are final. Once invoice is paid, no refunds, returns, or exchanges are accepted.
* International buyers will be invoiced in USD, and are responsible for any additional customs fees they might be charged by their country as a result of the purchase.
* YOUR BID IS A COMMITMENT TO BUY THE ITEM. Winning bidders have 48 hours (2 days) to pay the invoice once it is sent. If bidder fails to pay within that time, and does not contact me within that time in the event of an emergency to make other arrangements, or backs out of the sale, they will be left negative feedback and item(s) will be relisted for sale.
* Free USA shipping = the least expensive method USPS offers with tracking and no added insurance (nearly all packages I send in the US have $100 insurance by default). Let me know before or immediately after you bid if you would like faster shipping and/or additional insurance and you will be invoiced accordingly. If you do not ask for faster shipping or additional insurance, you understand and accept responsibility for any risks associated with not purchasing them. If the price difference between the cheapest shipping method and the next fastest method is $0.50 or less, I will use the faster method at no additional cost to the bidder.
* I ship with tracking within the USA. I will only offer untracked international shipping depending on the item's value, if you have good feedback, and you understand that if the item gets lost you will not receive a refund.
* I will only ship items to address on buyer's Paypal account. If buyer wishes to have item sent to a different address from the one on their account and payment has already been made, I will refund payment and have buyer pay again after correcting the address. Paypal takes 3-5 days to issue a refund, which really slows down the transaction, so please double check your address before paying! It is your responsibility to make sure you have the correct shipping address on your account. If the item comes back to me as undeliverable/refused after the initial attempt to ship, buyer will be responsible for the full cost of additional shipping attempts.
* I will do my best to ship no more than 4 days after receiving payment. If it will take longer than that, you will be notified ASAP.
* If you need an item in hand by a specific date, tell me as soon as you know when you need to have it, and I will determine whether it is possible to accommodate your schedule. If it's really important that you have it by a certain date, do not bid until you know for sure that I can send it in time -- finding out after bidding that it will not arrive in time is not a valid excuse to back out of a sale! I am not responsible for unforeseen delays or variables beyond my control that may affect whether it arrives in time (weather, pandemic, etc.)
* I am not responsible for items lost in the mail, stolen, or damaged during shipping. I will pack items as best I can to avoid damage (proper size packaging and sufficient taping to avoid breaking open in transit, multiple layers of wrapping, bubble wrap or rigid packaging for flat/fragile items, etc).
* I generally only leave feedback as a seller after the buyer confirms that they received the item I sold to them (so I know there are either no problems with the sale, or have a chance to fix any issues). If I sold you something and have not given you feedback, this is why.
You MAY NOT reuse my photos or copy text from my listings for your sale listing!
