CONDITION
Good condition.
-There are some tiny scuffs in the cotton to the front of the waist area.
-One linear repair on the hem line at the side of the back, hides well due to where it is and the print.
-Very very slight and very localised underarm discolouration on one side, only visible to the small section where print is white.
-Some slight fraying to interfacing panels at the neck as these are not overlocked, but this doesn't show when worn.
