Condition
For a piece of true 1970s vintage the condition is SATISFACTORY. As this piece is made from crepe, it can be prone to colour bleeding. It looks as though a previous wearer has washed it instead of dry cleaning. This hasn't effected the fit or shape, it has just left a slight colour bleed from the darker to lighter stripe. These areas have been shown in the listing photos. There are also a few small runs/ pulls to the fabric, again not obvious when worn.
