Minor evidence of wear in the form of underarm discolor. I have hand washed the dress and treated the underarms to make this as faint as possible and feel confident that it goes unnoticed when worn (was not able to get it to show in the photos but feel it is worth mentioning). Dress is otherwise structurally sound and presents beautifully!
