Condition

Very good vintage shape, presents well. Subtle imperfections factored into pricing. 70+ years old.

A small off-seam dart on rear shoulder. A wee hole at waist and a few associated pinholes, camouflaged by belt during use. If held against a window's light, there are scattered tiny pinholes, but these are not noticed during wear/display and dress still feels sturdy to the touch. At some point, zipper was caught on placket fabric. See photos. 

The impression remains charming and crisp!
