Condition Report
Condition:

THE FIRST
The overall condition is good though there is some soiling under each arm internally, neckline, and cuff facings. There is a dark spot on the front left chest, and the blouse has been previously pressed.

THE SECOND
The overall condition is very good structurally though there are some hanging threads on the center back neckline and along the hemline. There are a couple of pulled threads on both shoulders, the front right hip, and back left hip. Both side seams show signs of alterations with some popped stitches on the left underarm seam.
