CONDITION: Very good pre-owned vintage condition with some minor cosmetic flaws. The fabric had some different colored threads in the weave. I touched them up with fabric paint so they blend in better. The raw edges at the seam allowances have some fraying. No holes, stains, or other flaws. If you have very sensitive skin, the inside of the WRIST smocking may feel a little scratchy. (The bodice is lined so that smocking won't touch your skin.) The tag shows through the back of the dress, so you may want to remove it. The condition of the paper tag makes me think it's never been washed. I cleaned it with Woolite at Home Dry Cleaner.
