Condition
Condition: The overall condition is fair with the following: Structural Issues: The front peach pink twill is shredding along the right edge where it's attached to the dress and also throughout the twill facing on the pleat detail along the skirt hemline. Split/Separated Seams: Losses: There are several small holes in the peach pink twill pleating and some holes in the back skirt near the hemline. Fading/Color Change: There is some overall fading, mostly noticeable on the front right skirt and back left skirt where there are darker and lighter striations running the length of the panels. Soiling/Spots: There is some soiling under each of the arms in the lining and a length of yellowed soiling along the front right twill pleating next to where it attaches to the dress.
