Condition Report

Condition:

The overall condition is good though there is pilling along the neckline and sleeves of the jacket, and waistband and hemline of the skirt. The jacket has been altered at the back princess seams and is noticeable in the lining. The looped trim has a broken loop at the center back jacket hemline as well as some general pilling throughout. The gold-tone plating is lightly worn on the buttons on the pockets, cuffs, and at the center front.
