Shows light regular use, freshly washed, a few of the dangles have hints of rust as they're a metal base, this looks mild but will continue with washing and need application oxalic acid (Whink or similar) occasionally to mitigate this inherent vice; two of the dangles have a bit of fray to their attaching cords; the hem is a bit shorter than originally and professionally sewn
Washing Instructions
Cold hand wash, hang to dry, press on medium-high setting
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.
