There are some stains on all pieces. I tried to show major ones in pics.

From Me:

Thanks, Virginia! Now we have the measurements. So, this was a 32" bust and looks like it was means to be loose - I'm going with a young girl's costumer for that reason. Not that there aren't petite ladies out there, but my guess is this was also some sort of junior miss [insert name of favorite hometown] pageant winner costume. The cut and style work for late teen's era (possibly after WWI?), early 1920's.
