Beautiful condition
Her original slip is missing - easy to replace
Found one very faint and small tea colored spot on front bodice
Faint underarm discoloration
The flower will need a cleaning or replacing - one petal has discolored.
It looks to me like it can be saved.
Clean and steamed but should be taken to a professional for a cleaning / pressing before the big day
might be possible to lighten underarms with a professional cleaning method
I can't find any breaks in the lace
completely wearable (with care, of course) - was stored wonderfully!
