This dress has small cleaning marks near the slit, only noticeable when looking closely, this is due to this fabric type. Small fake tan residue that could not be removed during cleaning on the lace up string - blends into skin when on though.

Pulls are expected with this fabric type - you can cut any loose thread off that we might have missed. Please be aware that all rental companies with this dress, will have the same issue with pulls and water marks that are unavoidable.

Prone to small water marks, they usually aren't massive and are somewhat transparent. Completely unavoidable with this dress unless you are buying brand new and have not worn/washed it. Please keep this in mind when renting.
