CONDITION:
Good vintage condition. There are several shiny spots on the velvet throughout the dress. The most noticeable is on the front of the bodice and on the back of the dress just under the zipper. The photos of the close up shiny spots have had the brightness and contrast increased to see the shiny spots better. Please see photos. Regardless of these flaws, the piece presents beautifully and has been priced accordingly.
