Condition: Very Good. Please note there are 2 buttons inside at the shoulders that currently serve no purpose an a 2nd fiber content label reads 100% silk making me assume there was original an embellishment that buttoned inside. Otherwise the condition is great with just a few tiny snags to the surface here and there. Please see photos. Freshly hand soaked in cold water, line dried, and ready to wear.
