CONDITION:
Very good vintage condition. There are small snags throughout the fabric, as this can be common with this type of material from past use. The sleeves show some fading, along with some dark blue spots and light spots that can be seen on some sections throughout the dress. These dark blue spots are on the light blue parts, which makes me think this was an issue with the print. There a few scattered black dots throughout. There is some uneven stitching on the cuff of the right sleeve. The hem of the caftan is raw. Please see photos. Regardless of these flaws, the piece presents beautifully and has been priced accordingly.

This garment has been cleaned and is ready to wear.
