Condition: Absolutely wearable condition with no important flaws but we went through a bit of restoration as some seams needed sewing, now they are all perfect. Aside from that please read the following flaws:
- Note the front vertical seams are slightly stretched in the waist area (view photos)
- It has a small damage/hole close to the bottom skirt (view photo)
- It has a couple of tiny flaws in the tie (view photo)
- The zipper works perfectly but it seems that the previous owner made a fixing on it
