♛Condition

As-is but still sturdy and wearable. Cleaned/soaked twice. 75+ years old.

NO holes, tears, missing parts, or blatant stains. Worn-in with visible signs of a past spent as somebody's everyday hard-working piece. 

Some scattered little scuffs, typical for older satin-finished textiles. Some faint water type marks and traces of age toning that didn't soak out, mostly by collar/neck and shoulder area. See images as they illustrate it all best. 

Perfect for those of us who want a more rare piece you can wear and enjoy without guilt! Amazing for photos or theatre, too. (If you are condition-picky, please do leave for others who will appreciate her best.)
