Condition: there's color shift/staining along the neckline and at the underarms, indicating she was someone's favorite and saw many mid-century adventures. you could dye it a deeper shade (should work great), but it's certainly strong and wearable as is. a few tiny glitches here and there (see photos), but there's plenty of life left in this pretty dress. gently priced to reflect imperfections.
