The ribbon at the waist is sewn at the sides, not a belt. The thick ribbon allows for a cute bow. The cuffs are ribbed for convenience. The color appears darker in the light, but it is a light blue and white stripe. The image showing the quality tag is the closest to the actual color. Flat measurements with the ribbon untied: Shoulder width: Approximately 48 cm Body width: Approximately 54 cm Sleeve length: Approximately 55 cm Length: Approximately 112 cm Please note that these are amateur measurements, so there may be some error. Thank you.
