Condition
Good with some points to note;
- there are a number of darns in the piece - one on the front of the left sleeve - three in the back rib of the jumper - 5 in the bodice - 6 in the skirt - they are all small and because of the bobbly texture of the knit they aren't really seen when worn
- the belt will need a popper fitted to secure the end when you know the waist size you need
- the belt has some small holes in it where someone has pocked the buckle prong through
