If you are buying these pieces to wear, they must be worn carefully, please keep in mind that they are 80 to 100 or more years old. Most of the items are all in good condition
but please read the descriptions carefully for listed flaws. I cannot guarantee the wearability of older garments like
these. I cannot predict how long they will hold up with wear. I think that most of the pieces are better for display.
