Very good antique condition! Structurally sound, and very wearable! With care, of course, as you would any antique garment. There is one faint spot on chest (pictured) and some tiny spots near hem (pictured.)

The dress measurements look like they could fit a small up to a medium body size. However, the sleeves are bit tight. You would have to rework / split the cuffs (which would be easy to do) if you wanted this dress to fit larger than a size XS.

Bust: 38"
Waist: 38"
Hips: free
Length: 40"

All measurements are taken when the garment is flat.
I suggest that you find a similar garment in your wardrobe that fits you well, measure it when flat, and compare the numbers to be sure you're getting the best fit for you.
If I've listed an approximate size, it's only an ESTIMATE, and measurements are far more precise.
The measurements are that of the garment and please allow room for fit & MOVEMENT.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in San Diego, CA.
