CONDITION

Excellent: Hand washed and steamed without any holes, rips, or stains. Looks to have been taken in at the center back. I did not release the stitches out of fear of leaving tiny holes in the garment. If you chose to release the center back stitches, the size would extend to 34 bust and 27-8 waist.

A Note on Buying Vintage

This is an antique or early vintage garment made from delicate materials such as silk, fine cotton, lace, or early synthetics. These textiles may display signs consistent with age, which includes:

• natural fiber fatigue
• gentle thinning at stress points
• subtle irregularities inherent to early manufacturing
• age-related softness or patina

These qualities are authentic to historic garments and are considered part of their character, not defects, unless otherwise stated.

Notable flaws, such as excessive wear, stains, holes, or rips will always be photographed and disclosed in the condition notes.
