Condition
Lovely dress in brushed cotton with a gorgeous abstract impressionist print of flowers, I suspect camellias. The piping treatment at the bodice is a nice touch and really lifts the dress. No flaws to note, except that someone has cut the hem and just left a running machine stitch without proper finishing. Other than that no issues. Cleaned and ready to wear.
