The Neck Strap has considerable yellowing, and there are rust colored stains at the backside of the metal buckles on the interior side of the dress. A few other very faint minor spots intermittently, I have not attempted to bleach the dress to brighten. Sold in “as-is, estate-found” condition, priced accordingly.
