Thank you for viewing. I used this dress twice, for a baby's first shrine visit (Omiyamairi) and for Shichi-Go-San (a traditional festival for children). It's designed to be worn before and after pregnancy. The length can be adjusted, and it has a lining. I don't think there are any noticeable stains or damage like loose threads on the lace, but please be aware of this if you are particularly concerned about such things.
