Notes

There is a tear under the proper right sleeve that will get conserved. Under the proper left arm the seam is beginning to separate but that will be prepared. Around the neck line the facing has come unstitched from the body of the dress and that will get repaired. The bra top is crused and the cups are heavily distorted and the elastic is discoloring. The belt is worn and has no lining.
