Secret Honey Dumbo Set

Hello everyone, welcome back to another post. Today, I would like to show you this beautiful Dumbo set from Secret Honey. Gray does not suit me the best, but I do absolutely love these three pieces. The set consists of a shirt, a skirt and a parka with ears! Isn’t that too cute?

I showcase one of my Disney pieces every two weeks, you can check out my other posts if you like. Last time I showed you my Secret Honey Aurora Costume.

If you would like to know more about the brand and about how you can get these dresses, I have got you covered in this post. I also sometimes sell dresses from my collection, check out my shop or my Instagram, I usually list them there.

The Dumbo Set

I will first show you all three pieces together. The pieces were released in 2019 and they were all sold separately. Here are the original prices:

Parka: 9800 yen plus taxes
Shirt: 5900 yen plus taxes
Skirt: 12800 yen plus taxes

Here I am wearing the set outside 🙂 It was quite a warm day, but I wasn’t sweating at all wearing these pieces.

Here are all three pieces together on my dress form:

You can wear the shirt tucked in or over the skirt. Over the skirt, it hides the details of the waistband, but tucked in, you don’t see the print on the shirt that well. Your decision 🙂 I like to wear it over the waistband. Here is the whole set from the side:

The zipper on my skirt unfortunately broke. I need to replace it, so I can wear the set again. Also it does need a good steam or run with the iron 😉 Here is the set from the back:

The Dumbo Shirt

I will start with the shirt, I want to save the parka for last because it is my favourite piece 😉 The shirt is stretchy, I never had any problems wearing it also with a bust bigger than 100 cm. The sleeves look a bit weird on my wide shoulders though 🙂 Here is a close up of the shirt:

The shirt has very interesting sleeves. It is the same cut as the Lion King shirt I showed you before (same for the skirt as well. I wonder, why there is no Lion King parka with Lion ears…). Here is a close up of the sleeves:

The shirt does have beautiful orange and yellow ribbing around the neckline, I like it a lot:

And of course, I will show you a close up of the cute print. It says “You are wonderful”, isn’t that cute?

The Dumbo Skirt

The skirt is super cute, has a nice ribbon detail on the waistband and a sweet overall print. Here it is on my dress form:

The skirt is a decent size, I’d say it does fit up to 78 cm in the waist. It closes with a hidden zipper on the side. There is shirring in the back:

In the front, there is a beautiful lace up detail done with orange ribbon. One day, when I got over my fear of altering my Secret Honey clothes, I will sew the bows down. Because the ribbon unties quite often. Which is one of the reasons I wear the shirt over it instead of showing it off.

The skirt is pleated in four different places. In the front, the pleats go down from the lace up detail, which is a beautiful touch.

Inside the box pleats, there is a beautiful striped fabric:

The print on the skirt is very cute:

The skirt does have two layers, the fashion fabric and a lining layer:

The Dumbo Parka

Now, my favourite piece. The ears aren’t stabilized in any way, they are just two layers of jersey, so they hang a little. Here I am holding them up, I did like this pose, as you may have already noticed 😛

The parka closes with a zipper in the centre front:

It is mostly just one layer of fabric, but there are facings where the zipper is. The hood is lined with the same fabric as the outer.

Let’s have a look at the hood with the cute elephant ears:

The ribbon around the hood is not the same as the ribbing on the shirt. It is the same colour, but the yellow stripe is sewn onto the orange fabric. So it does mimic the ribbing, but is no ribbing.

Now the ears, here they are. As I said before, they are just two layers of jersey fabric, no wire or anything that would help them stand up. It’s sad that they hang, but on the other hand, it keeps the parka soft and easy to wear:

The parka also has prints, one in the front and one on the back. In the front we have Timothy:

And on the back we have Dumbo as well as Timothy. I’m a bit sad, that they didn’t design a new print for Timothy, it is exactly the same as in the front:
