I've worn this a few times. It's difficult to see in the photos, but the fabric does show some signs of wear upon close inspection (on the inner lining and around the waist). However, because of the pattern, it's hardly noticeable. ☺️ I didn't even notice it when I was wearing it. Whether or not it bothers you will depend on individual preference, so I appreciate your understanding! I will do my best to remove any pilling before sending it to you!
