Function: Functioning buttons down the front of the dress Flaws or other notes: Last nine photos capture the true color of the dress. There are a couple photos that make the dress look off color and its merely the lighting I couldn't get right. So for true color please refer to the last nine photos. 9th to last photo shows very faint armpit stain. Armpit stains are mostly on the right armpit. 8th to last photo is hand stitches at front right waist seam area bringing together what looks to have been a frayed small rip. 6th & 7th to last photos show up close and far away hand stitching that brought together what looks like was a seperating snag at one point. 5th to last photo shows very faint and unnoticeable stains near the front hem area 4th to last photo just shows the inside of the dress seams. 2nd and 3rd to last photos show a tiny and very unnoticeable pile or snag that made a pile in the fabric at Back Right Shoulder Blade area. Last photo is of a frayed snag that is an "almost hole". The fabric is very strong and the hole will not expand or become an actual hole unless wearer is intentionally rough or abusive to the area.
