Mayle for Sale, Part VIII



Here's another lovely Mayle dress that Leanne is selling. Again, it is brand new and completely sold out everywhere.

Leanne writes:

It is a Reiko, size 2 and I'd like to sell it for $340, including shipping. Brand new, never worn. It really is a size too small. It isn't long enough in the torso. Maybe if it put it back out into the universe I will find one in the proper size!

Moya - thank you for posting. I apologize for the terrible pictures, I have an old camera! Someone else had asked me about measurements. I checked this evening and it is a pretty straight dress. Lying flat, it measures 19" across the entire length of the dress.

Hi Moya, I have really enjoyed reading your blog and the comments with respect to all the Mayle items. I am a big fan but I as I live on the West Coast I had to really on the photos and your great descriptions to purchase re-editions. I was just wondering if anyone else is noticing that the quality of the re-editions are a bit off. My hanae cami was so tight across the chest, though it is the same size as my original; my billie doux, which I love, is becoming discolored, though I have only used it a couple of times; the button popped off my petulia aztec!! I am reluctant to buy anything further at this rate.

Hi UM! Thanks for writing. Yes, the re-editions are not so well made. I am not sure there will be any more re-editions before the sample sale at this point. Some of the dresses are better made than others (like Sylvestre and Michaela), but the quality is still more like samples than regular Mayle. Obviously, they are cheaper, but they are not as nice as regular production. Sizing was also off, and even varied across various re-editions.

Hi Moya - I love your blog. I'm thinking of selling a new, unused Mayle tote bag that I purchased last fall, as I'm trying to clean my closet. If you would be interested in posting it, please contact me at lenakim@me.com.
