I purchased this directly from the store over 25 years ago. The length can be adjusted at the neck. Length from the knot: approximately 32cm This item has been stored at home for a long time. There is a faint stain, though it's not very noticeable. It's not obvious when worn, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. See images 5 and 6. Please consider this item with the understanding that it is old. Jane Marple, Lolita, Gothic Color: Black
