Condition:THE FIRSTThe overall condition is very good though the blouse has two runs in the right underarm and dark spots on the right back sleeve hem. Both cape and skirt appear to have no visible issues. THE SECONDThe overall condition is good though there is some soiling along the neckline and underarms. There is a faint white soiled spot on the front placket at chest level. The lining has discolored and has dark spots in the upper shoulder and back area. The collar, back panel, and front placket has discolored, with a more yellow tone to it. The next to last button has broken off but is maintained with the item.THE THIRDThe overall condition is very good structurally though the jacket has some stitch holes in the right side lining which may suggest minor alterations and there is some light soiling under each arm in the lining.
