This is a stunning skirt set-black--though lace overlay has faded to a black/brown with a hint of green depending on the light
The waistband needs repair
The hem of the skirt has some damage, but it is covered by the lace over lay
The bodice/shirtwaist is in fairly good and sturdy condition --the lace ruffle is a bit wonky, but may look better when on. The stays are strong.
Skirt needs the most help, but I feel this is wearable if careful.
Sold as is.
