Condition: good condition - major issue is fade. Fade is subtle due to soft pink color. The skirt back shows the most distinct fade with some areas looking spotted and pinker than others. The bottom box pleat hem has various shades of fade and lint built up in pleats but can't be seen when wearing, two small holes in the bodice, one small darned hole near the arm opening and a few small pin holes that can't be seen but covered by the capelet, capelet has discoloration or spots where it may have hung (this is pointed out in the top right image of imperfections). A few small marks on back skirt under waistline looks like a light pencil. There is an area of the bodice where the thread that gathered the bodice fabric is missing, seam above snap buttons has either been let out slightly or a reinforcement seam missing, belt has light darkening. Clean, ready to wear.
