Labels: Make Mine a McKettrick maternity
Fiber/Care: no label, burn test suggests linen-look rayon / dry-cleaning recommended
Condition: No flaws to note. The skirt was taken in 0.5"/1.25cm on either side seam, at some time in the past. The fabric was not cut, and the skirt could be let out again to return it to the original dimensions, making it 1"/5cm larger) down the entire length of the skirt (I can do this for you if you want, for a small fee -- just ask when you purchase).
*We've had this vintage maternity outfit professionally dry-cleaned and it's ready to wear.*
