Very good vintage condition. Freshly cleaned and ready to wear! One small area on back of skirt seam (right above pleat where the seam is) with three tears which have been repaired and aren't seen when worn, only when very closely inspected. Some areas of the metallic gold and silver have faded slightly, but this dress is still very shiny! The elastic on the shoulders has been replaced, so it is very stretchy once again!
