Condition Report
Condition:

THE FIRST
The overall condition is very good though the dress has been taken in on the side seam at the waist. The orange belt has some darkened edges, mostly around the buckle and the back leather has darkened unevenly, likely from the adhesive used in construction. The black belt has a small strip of suede detaching along the back of the buckle.

THE SECOND
The overall condition is very good with no visible issues.
