CONDITION
Good condition.
-Some light discolouration to the covered buttons and few very faint marks to the skirt, see photos.
-Two tiny darns, one on lower skirt and one on the shoulder, both shown in photos.
-Seam straining to the darts.
-Hard to say for sure, but I think the side seams have been taken in slightly and hem is handsewn so may have been taken up.
Priced to reflect.
