The lower portion of the silk lining is topped with more of the lace. This shows with the movement of the split skirt. The long sleeves have fabric covered button at the cuffs. In very good condition. There is discoloration and holes to the one of the underarms as pictured, as well as a few other small holes in this portion of the lining. This is in the cream lining and does not show when worn. There is the occasional break in the lace as pictured.
