CONDITION

This vintage piece is in excellent overall condition for its age. There are several light marks on the front and back of the bodice that are only visible in certain light. These are hidden when the corset is worn. Please refer to the photos and videos, taken in natural light.

Other minor vintage imperfections may be present due to the age and delicate nature of vintage textiles. These are considered normal for garments of this era. We carefully inspect each piece prior to listing and document all visible and notable imperfections to the best of our ability. Not every minor imperfection can always be individually noted.

Each piece has been professionally cleaned and arrives ready to wear. A light steam may be needed upon arrival to release any wrinkles from shipping. Please refer to care instructions.

Care

Please handle delicately. This garment is vintage and may be more fragile than modern pieces. Avoid excessive pulling, stretching, or pressure on seams and closures. Store properly and wear with care to preserve its condition. The piece has been cleaned and arrives ready to wear. A light steam will be needed to release any wrinkles from shipping. When steaming, we recommend using distilled water and placing a clean white cloth between the steamer and the garment to protect the fabric from potential water marks. When possible, steam from the inside of the garment for the safest and most gentle results.

Please review the condition notes, fabric contents, full item description, measurements, and care instructions carefully prior to purchasing. If you have any questions regarding fit, details, or condition, we encourage you to reach out before checkout at hello@1208vintage.com.

The term vintage is defined as 20+ years old or older. Vintage items have survived years, decades, and often lifetimes of ownership and use. Due to their age, minor imperfections may be present and are considered part of the garment's history. Vintage textiles are delicate and may show signs of wear not noted in the listing. These may include light spots, faint discoloration, small marks, pinholes, areas of fabric wear, or previous repairs. Vintage garments were also constructed differently from modern clothing and are inherently delicate; please be gentle on seams and closures.

Many feature fine seam allowances and interior finishes such as pinking, which were commonly used in historic garment construction. Over time, internal seam edges may appear soft or fuzzy. This is normal for garments of this era and does not affect the overall wearability or integrity of the piece.

Any notable imperfections will be disclosed in the Condition Notes section of each product listing to the best of our abilities. While every garment is carefully inspected, not every minor imperfection can always be individually noted. These characteristics are typical of vintage garments and contribute to their unique history and character.

By purchasing, you acknowledge and accept the nature of vintage garments and agree to our final sale policy.
