Condition: I think all of the cutest dresses come in the small sizes! Aren't you lucky! This is a lovely gray and white plaid cotton day dress, fitted bodice with a V neckline and lace trim on the front, side metal zip and a gathered skirt. I have had this dress hanging around for years (just cause I thought it was cute, not because it fit me!) Looks home sewn. Lone fault is light pulling on the waistline seam (so if you don't have a 26 inch waist, well, don't buy this dress). The dress does have a super light fade on the underarm seams, but this is a light fade not a discoloration or a satin, and you can't even notice it when you are wearing the dress. Otherwise solid in fabric and construction -- ready to wear!
