Nelly said she washed it. Dumb move.
Nelly washed Connally's suit?

The holes are not aligning perfectly because the animator didn't center vertically the button-hole with the button.

Like I say about the WC: Close enough!

No. I was talking about the shirt. From memory, I thought she had washed it. Freeman was, unsurprisingly & in true CTer fashion, playing it a little loose with what I had actually said.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE: I just double checked my original post and found that I did say suit, not shirt. My bad.
And my apologies to Tonkovich & Freeman
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Turns out she had it cleaned before handing it over for an exhibition

The white Arrow brand shirt, size 16 with a 35-inch sleeve, has faded over the years and the now-brown blood stains and spatters cover nearly all of it. There are bullet holes in the shirt's chest, back shoulder and right cuff. Three buttons are missing, presumably due to emergency medical responders ripping the garment away to reach Connelly's chest wound.
The damage to the three-button Oxford Clothes suit from John L. Ashe of Fort Worth is less pronounced.
Nellie Connally had it cleaned before it was presented to the state archives, Anderson said, so there's no evidence of blood. But the coat has bullet holes that match those on the shirt, plus a hole on the left leg just above and toward the inside of the knee.

Howard Brennan was an important eyewitness, on the same day not only did he give a fairly accurate identification of Oswald... 
Nonsense--Brennan did not identify Oswald. Quit making stuff up.
