Marked US size 6 (Italian sz 42). This item would best fit a modern size S, but please refer to measurements. Fabric is quite stretchy and forgiving although the waist has no give.

About the designer: Alberta Ferretti began her career in fashion in 1968, by opening a fashion boutique named Jolly in Cattolica, Italy. She launched her namesake label in 1974 and, having garnered a cult following through her boutique, expanded her reach to Milan in the early eighties, founding her first showroom and debuting at Milan Fashion Week. In 1984 the designer launched Ferretti Jeans Philosophy — renamed Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti in 1987 — as her first diffusion label aimed towards the youth market.
