Comment

This vintage dress has been well looked after and is in excellent condition for its age. Remember this dress is over sixty years old but has no noticeable flaws that I can seen apart from very light discolouration spots on inside facings - not able to be photographed and not visible when worn.

Shown with a crinoline, which is not included. Accessories such as belts and ribbons not included unless noted. Some items may be pinned to the form.
