I only wore it once for the entrance ceremony. It seems a ribbon flower was attached to the new students with safety pins, and I'm a little concerned about that, but other than that, it's clean with no noticeable scratches or stains. When my child wears it, it has a simple yet elegant cuteness, and it was a huge hit with the grandparents. It also looks great worn as just the dress. This is a piece that was talked about at the time as the youngest Go professional, Sumire Nakamura, wore it when she was young.
