Condition Detail
Shows regular use, the skirt has several very subtle repaired holes, these are hard to notice due to the dense print but they can be found with close and careful inspection; the knit has very slight color bleed that shows as slightly more/less pink to the lightest areas, also very hard to notice; minor pilling that has been combed out to a great degree; pin is likely earlier than the dress (looks 1930s/40s era) and one of its leaves has pulled away from its wire backing, not noticeable when worn

Washing Instructions
Omitting pin - Warm gentle machine or hand wash, shape and dry flat, steam if needed or press on low-medium setting; original label says dry clean though does not appear to be necessary with this fabric

Please note: All measurements (bust - waist - hip) are the maximum body measurements that will fit the item. These measurements already have ease subtracted and they are not actual fabric widths. To get actual fabric widths add two inches at the bust - one inch at the waist and two inches at the hip.
