Wow! What a find!

Vintage Harmay St Amour Couture 1970's Maxi Gown or Hostess Dress / Dress

Red gown with vibrant purple and black embroidery & felt flower and fern appliques. 3D crewel style details on the flower blossoms and across skirt

The pictures don't do it justice. It's absolutely gorgeous!

Zips in back. Skirt has slit in front for ease of movement. Fully lined

Made in the USA with a Union Label 

Tagged size 14. Measures like a modern Medium to large, depending on build

Please go by measurements :

 chest 18 to 20 inches 

waist 16  inches 

length 56 inches 

hip 20 to 21.5   Arm opening 10" 

Well made and substantial. Unknown fabric content - the skirt feels like wool, and the top appears to be some sort of rayon taffeta satin

Has been very well cared for and preserved over the years. Color is vibrant with no fading. Looks unworn- inner tags still "crisp". No pilling, no stains. 

Note: We found a few tiny nicks/divots in the finish of the fabric. Possibly from moths? Most of them don't go all the way through and the lining is fully intact behind them. One pinhole in the top.  Pointed out in last 4 photos.
