Vintage 70s St. John Saks Fifth Avenue Black Santana Knit Midi Dress (Read)

Vintage 70s St. John Saks Fifth Avenue Black Santana Knit Midi Dress. Size tag is missing but I am guess this is a small, however please see photo measurements to ensure a proper fit. This dress does have some stretch to it. Gorgeous, classic and timeless dress by St. John for Saks Fifth Avenue. This is the 70s-80s era. Santana knit. Midi fit. Faux buttons on the bottom section of dress. Approximately 4 inch split at bottom. Attached double shoulder pads. This dress has a few flaws. There is one barely noticeable split/hole at bottom near a button. You can't see this when wearing the dress. Only if you put your finger on the spot and stretch the fabric. Also, towards the back there is some slight pulling and separation of fabric near waist. See last four photos highlighting flaws and zoom in. Additionally, this dress has a slight perfume/powder scent. Not overpowering but present. Writing on back of inside tag. Dress is clean and has been steamed. Dry clean recommended. An amazing vintage gem. A flattering fit. Gold silver tone and black detail on buttons. Hidden zip and fasten on back. LEWG62023B
