♛Condition

Very nice vintage shape, sturdy, presents wonderfully, especially for a near-antique. 85+ years old.

Wee scrapes in fabric at rear bodice, peplum top layer, and a cuff. A little run in fabric, can barely see it. A few pinholes lurking by shoulders revealed when held to a window's light. Nothing that catches the eye during use; I'm being picky. See images.
