Good Vintage Condition - Some overall wear to the piece. Some evidence of mending at one or two worn spots. A few very small worn spot that are not holes yet. There are a number of faint markings to the piece both inside and out. I have done a number of treatments to reduce the number of these spots as well as lessen their appearance - it is WAY better than it was, but some faint marks still remain. Some wear and tiny pinholes to lining. I don’t know if this was intentional from manufacture, but there seems to be a bit of an excessive amount of lining.
All measurements are approximate as they are taken flat - for garments specifically this means where applicable (bust, waist, hips) has been doubled unless stated otherwise. If you are uncertain about fit and/or need more measurements please ask! If it is provided in the listing, models and/or dress form sizes are used as a point of reference only. Please remember that all bodies are different so always defer to the measurements I provide and check them against your own, preferably on a similar style garment. If you need more information about my measurements and vintage sizing please refer to my FAQs section under my Shop Policies page and ask me, I am here to help!!
