APPLIED EMBROIDERED CHEVRONS TO THE SKIRT FULLY AROUND. CONDITION: TAFFETA WAS ADDED TO EACH SIDE OF THE REAR SKIRT AND I PERSONALLY WOULD REMOVE AND REPLACE THE WAISTBAND IF NECESSARY, AT THAT POINT. THE UNDER SKIRT IS EDGED IN WOOL BINDING ALONG THE HEM THAT IS UNSEEN WHEN WORN. THERE IS AN EIGHTEEN INCH AREA ON THE REAR TRAIN THAT IS MISSING THE PIPING.
