What the
image cannot tell you.
Materials
Confirm the fabric and trims. A photograph can suggest texture, but cannot establish the fibre or how it should be cleaned.
Measurements
Ask for garment dimensions, then compare them with the wearer and the movement required by the role.
Condition & pieces
Request close views and a complete list. A pictured hat or underlayer may be a styling idea rather than part of an offer.
