Condition:
Much effort was put into making this gown look this good! But, since it was worn in productions, the gown's not perfect-, but still wearable and most presentable. There's a light overall soil (A cleaning could fix most of the minor concerns), mostly on the hem. I really don't feel they are going to get work, but you can reenforce with a stitch or so here.) this would freshen all the ribbons too.
