♛Condition
Very good vintage condition. Cleaned and bright, wears great. Nearly 80 years old.
To note: a couple small things down at the rear hem -- very faint cluster of small spots and a small hem stick (see last photos). You can see faintly where the hem was once set about 2" higher, and by returning it to this length it would hide the blemishes, but flaws do not attract attention as they are now, either, due to the obscure location.
