The costume is "theatrically" constructed and features industrial hook and eye and zipper in back. No labels present. This gown was worn when Streisand introduced the song "People" live to Broadway audiences during the original 1964 run of the play at the Broadway Winter Garden theatre.

The brilliant film and stage costume designer Irene Sharaff created the costumes for both the stage and film versions of Funny Girl. Minor repairs to chiffon overlay, overall fine condition."
