Condition 

Fair vintage condition

I don't normally list items with damage but I feel this dress can be restored with a little effort. The chantilly lace overlay has breaks in several areas of the dress, mainly at the sleeves (due to hanging) however the tulle backing makes this difficult to see. If the damaged areas could be tacked to the tulle, I think that would render them almost invisible.  

Please note that these are vintage items that have been used and loved over time, As such, they may display slight evidence of their age. Any notable flaws will be highlighted.
