Condition Detail
Very nice for its age, fabric looks and feels sturdy but should be handled with respect simply due to age, the upper back bodice has a scant hint of beige dapples, these are so faint they're hard to perceive; the lower right skirt has several tiny clusters of rust specks, also very mild and hard to notice when worn; the buttons are vintage deadstock replacements

Washing Instructions
Cold hand wash, shape and dry flat, press cotton on medium-high setting

*bust, waist & hip measurements are the maximum inches that will fit the item (and not actual fabric widths), so your body measurements should match these or be slightly smaller
*to get actual fabric widths of garment, add two inches to the bust measurement listed, one inch to the waist, and two inches to the hip
*size we list is a modern size equivalent, any size listed on label is a vintage size (which can be very different than a modern size)
