I purchased this at a store about 1-2 years ago and wore it about 4 times. It looks gray in the images, but it's actually closer to light blue. There are some minor damages to the collar ruffles (5th image), some stains near the right waist ribbon (6th image), and holes from safety pins that were used to prevent the ribbon from losing its shape (7th image). Also, the pearl on the button has peeled off, and the pearl on the center part of the ribbon has come off, so I have repaired it with commercially available pearls. There is a slight color difference, but it's not very noticeable. I can add more pictures if you'd like, so feel free to comment. Instant purchase is OK. Adding pictures is OK.
