Condition: This bustier is in good but not perfect vintage condition. The bustier appears to have general discolouration throughout and the dark black that it may have been is now more of a charcoal colour. The sequins show sign of wear with some variation in lustre. Some of the sequins appear to be a slightly different colour. A few very small scattered bleach marks : 1 along the back right hand side of the bustier in line with the second to last hook and eye clasp . A few small pin sized bleach marks along the front left hand side of the bodice, these blend in well with the pattern of scattered sequins. .Gentle and light colour variation and wear along the hemline. These minor issues are not overly apparent when the bustier is being worn, and only apparent under closer inspection. This piece has been priced accordingly
