CONDITION: The dress is in very good condition. There are a few tiny scattered holes but the fabric feels sturdy. The seams are splitting from the cotton thread being dried out. The seam on the shoulder and on the back of one arm is split open and need to be resewn. In this case, usually all of the seams need to be resewn because the thread will keep popping.
Some missing rhinestones from the decorative buttons.
