Condition 

This special dress is in very good vintage condition for its age. The only minor issues that I can see is that the seam at the waist is a little stressed and there are one or two hand sewing reinforcements to that seam - not seen from the exterior of the dress. One or two pin dot spots on the skirt and a very slight dinginess to the cotton collar. As can be seen, none of these inconsequential flaws detract from the beauty of this dress.  Shown with a crinoline and belt for presentation purposes and not included in the sale.  Please drop us a line if your require additional information about this listing.
