The dress has a few small marks and spots on the skirt and an odd little "wave" pattern that seems to run through the fabric on the side lower skirt oddly - this can happen with this fabric if it is not stored properly for extended periods of time

Sleeves:25 "

The bodice is gathered above a nipped in waist and it has a built in corset
