Condition
 
Overall look is good and would display nicely but the skirt does have some condition issues:
 
-a few splits in the silk at the black bands. A few areas where the stitching has come loose and needs a restitch. A couple of tiny holes in the red silk. Some light missing thread in the leafy branches. Area in one of the embroidered panels of butterfiles has some missing thread. 
 
A few mends and stabilizing areas will go a long ways towards bringing the skirt back to it's original glory.
