I purchased this item on Mercari as new and only wore it once. The previous seller bought it at Shimamura last year for 4800 yen as a set. The bow tie is detachable with buttons, and the shirt and vest are a docking type, meaning they are attached. The shirt is made of a soft material, so my child wore it without complaint. I will fold it up small for shipping, so please be aware of possible creases.
