CONDITION:
Excellent vintage condition. There is a faint mark on the back of the dress that didn't come out during cleaning. Also, it looks like the stars were added by hand, possibly by the previously owner. A few of the stars have more white showing than others. There are some loose threads at the waist, but the seam is secure. Please see photos for these issues. Regardless of these flaws, the piece presents beautifully, and has been priced accordingly.
