This item was purchased several years ago and stored after being worn a few times. It has only been worn a few times and is close to being unused, but upon ironing for this listing, I found one loose thread at the hem. It's not so much a fray as a part of the seam that came undone during sewing, so the sewing thread itself isn't frayed. It can be worn without issue if repaired as needed. Please feel free to ask any questions in the comments.
