Condition

Dress shows signs of wear consistent with age. Frayed interfacing, some fraying to inside seams and hook at top of zipper is rusty.  Sash may have come untacked from dress.  Inside one end of sash are dark threads that can be seen through the light weight fabric. There is a small snag in the front of the bodice that is pictured.  In that photo, you can also see the threads in the sash.  Still a beautiful dress with flaws that will not be noticed while wearing for everyone will be gushing about how beautiful you are!

Grade: Good
