Very good vintage condition. Freshly cleaned and ready to wear! The metallic gold filigree is in mint condition! A small handful of scattered tiny pinholes. The shoulder pads were missing, so have been replaced with modern ones; easily removed with a few scissor snips if desired. There was a small hole on one side of the neckline (guessing that's where a hook/eye once was located?), so they edges have been nicely tacked down for a more open sweetheart neckline look. Super subtle color variance streaks down the skirt, which get lost in the fullness of the fabric.
