I purchased this last year and wore it twice, but it has been stored at home since then. It has been worn only a few times and has no noticeable stains or scratches, but please understand that it is a used item. The color is not pure black, but a very dark gray. It has a unique design, but the color is calm, so it's easy to wear. I think it would be cute paired with a sheer shirt as an inner layer ^ ^ I will use recycled packaging materials when shipping.
