C O N D I T I O N
Very good vintage condition. Freshly cleaned and ready to wear! Very slight yellowing on fold of halter neckline which isn't seen when worn. There are several holes on the dress bodice which have been mended with colored threads to match print and help blend into the busyness of the print.
