Condition: very good vintage - some small things need to be fixed but they would be easy to do - the straps in back attach to the back of the suit with hooks & eyes - the hooks are all there on the inside back of the suit but 5 of the straps need the “eyes“ sewn on - the former owner had it pinned but i think it would be better to put the eyes back on - i thought about doing that but it really needs to be tried on by the person wearing it as the straps will have to be adjusted to that person‘s body & everyone would need the eyes in a different place so i will leave it to the new owner to do that - the cleaners can do that for you very easily & all you have to do it tell them where you want the eye placed on the strap - some of the seams inside the suit are raw which i don‘t know why but no one will see it & it doesn‘t affect the wearability of the suit

Someone else could have used the platter but I do not see any wear on it
