➾ CONDITION - Great! Mends were made by the previous owner along both arms - backing has been added to help reinforce these mends. The backing is a bit stiff, but done very well. Having mentioned that, the rest of the fabric and the areas around these mends are very sturdy. The backing is also hidden quite well behind the business of the floral pattern. The blouse also has a few small pinholes as well. There is a small hole in the back of the skirt and a very few small surface tears along the waistband.
