From the seller:

The original buttons have been removed and replaced with snap closures. The overskirt is gathered in the back to create the bustle effect. The overskirt is unlined. It is being displayed over a bustle cage that is not included. The bodice and skirt are in good vintage condition. There is underarm discoloration and some loose stitching on the back waist on the overskirt. The lace is in very good condition with just a few broken bridges where the buttons were removed.
