CONDITION
Good condition.
-The outer chiffon has been rehemmed. NB. The way the lining is cut, I think it is meant to be worn with a petticoat, it hangs a little bit (1-2") below the hem at the centre front and back when worn without a petticoat, but it's a bias cut it stretches and shortens to sit perfectly with a petticoat it underneath.
-One small hole near the hem, not really noticeable, and one small hole to the lining at the back of the bodice, as the outer fabric is sheer, this is very slightly visible through the outer fabric.
-Dress has belt loops but no belt, however it is easy to wear with any plain black belt.
