CONDITION
Great as-is vintage condition, some flaws but very wearable (this was originally a costume for a theater production so it has been loved): pea size hole in the tulle chiffon below the front of the waist on the left side; some small spots throughout the dress; a few beads missing; most of the snap buttons have been replaced because the original ones were corroded and wouldn’t snap together; gown has a vinegar smell when steam is applied to the fabric.
