Authentic item purchased from JWI. The hem has been cut. The color is purple, and the third photo is the closest representation of the color. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about details. We would appreciate it if you could assess the condition of the item based on the photos. I work during the day, so transaction communication may be late in the evening. Regarding shipping, please note that the item may be folded or compressed to reduce its size for packaging. Thank you for your understanding.
