The dress is nicely full on its own. We show it with and without an additional crinoline, not included.
Labels: none, but we suspect it was store bought
Fiber/Care: unmarked, synthetic chiffon, nylon netting, acetate lining, washable
Condition: good, but there are glitches (see next-to-last photo), namely a few smudges and a diffuse stain near the hem. a few pinholes in the lining and a scattering in the outer skirt. the bow, which originally snapped on at the back, has a burn. we'll include it so you can use the fabric (there's plenty) to create a new bow, other embellishment, or accessory (something for your hair, perhaps?). the price has been adjusted accordingly.
*This dress is freshly laundered (after the photo shoot) and ready to wear.*
