PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY. Bidding on this listing means you have read it and examined all pics closely. Due to age of dress, it's not pristine.

ALLERGY NOTE: I have no dogs but I do have 1 cat. She does not go near the closet that my dresses are stored in

I'm not the first owner. All the flaws noted were there when the dress came to me. I stored it in a dark closet (away from sunlight/cat but with good oxygen flow so the fabric can breath) and a dehumidifier.

The dress isn't missing any pieces (waist ties are included). There is moderate fading to the fabric on the waist ties. In the pic, you can see the difference of the waist ties against the fabric of the dress. I don't know what caused the fading to the waist ties.
The thin blue ribbon that adorns the bottom is tied in bows on some parts but not others. Judging by the stock photo, it looks like they should be tied in more places? It's possible to retie them back into bows, so I don't consider it to be a major flaw. The ribbon ends on the bodice need to be retied (not a flaw)
There is light staining that I have circled in pics. I have not attempted to remove the stains. (note: I examined the dress and these were the only ones I could find. Please note that any similar minor/stains stains that I did not see are covered under my terms of sale. If you bid, you accept the possibility that there may be a minor spot I missed (within reason)
I think the lace on the bodice may have yellowed?

Of note:

The screen print is in fantastic condition. There is no rubbing or wear that I can see
All pearls are accounted for
The sizing is super generous especially considering it's an older piece when items were made smaller.

Note: I was on the fence about selling so will keep if it receives no bids on this auction
