Condition
I have had a few Cover Girl of Miami dresses over the years, and each one has been a showstopper. Beautifully constructed and often with unusual features, such as the ruched and gathered neckline on this lovely dress! I can see why the label is sought after by vintage enthusiasts. This dress itself is in excellent condition for its age. No flaws of note that I can see, other than it needs a hook and eye above the zipper to secure. Cleaned and ready to wear. Please drop us a line if your require additional information about this listing.
