Condition Report

Condition:
DRESS: The overall condition is excellent with no visible issues.

COAT: The overall condition is very good with the tassels slightly misshapen which is consistent with wear.

The stated overall condition of the lot is based on the assumption that the wear is consistent with age and use. As everything is sold 'as is', we suggest that you request a more detailed condition report and additional photo. This can be obtained via the INQUIRE button or by email at couturecr@lesliehindman.com. Condition is a matter of opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact.
