This item can be used for various occasions such as entrance ceremonies, school entrance ceremonies, farewell parties, reunions, Hatsumode (first shrine visit of the year), Shichi-Go-San (a traditional rite of passage for children), and more. Dry cleaned. Size: 9AR The "A" after the 9 indicates a standard build, and the "R" indicates a height of 158 cm (this is just a standard; for reference, I am between 160-162 cm). The brown thread in the pocket was there when I purchased it (photo 9). The fabric is not so much soft, but rather holds its shape well and is structured. Because it's white, it's easy to match with any color bag. It comes with a white corsage, but since the outfit is white, a corsage of a different color would also look good. Measurements are approximate, taken by a non-professional. Please understand this when purchasing. No claims and no returns accepted. Color: White
