A beautiful vintage Santana knit dress by Don Sayres for Wellmore in Hyacinth.

This expensive brand used to be sold at Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman and other high-end stores in the past .  If you like St. John Santana knits, you will like this brand as well because it is the same knit out of wool and rayon.

This expensive looking dress features off white or cream knit trim with metallic gold around the neck, down the front and the ends of the sleeves. The color of the dress is a beautiful shade of a deep periwinkle called Hyacinth which is a striking combination.  Very elegant and expensive looking.  Gold embossed buttons down the front of the dress with an opening of nearly 6" at the bottom.  Shoulder pads in the dress which could be removed.  A fabulous heavy knit in the same combination of rayon and wool just like the St. John knit dresses that we all love.  Unlined.  Long back zipper.

Just a very lovely vintage knit dress by Don Sayres for Wellmorein in Hyacinth - perfect for when you want to look expensive and elegant.

By: Don Sayres for Wellmore 
Size:  12 - would probably fit other sizes as well but go by the measurements
Approximate Measurements – This means the measurements of the item listed – not of your own figure.  You must be a few inches smaller than the measurements shown.
Bust: 39 - 40 stretched a bit
Shoulder to shoulder:  16-3/4 - 17
Waist: 35 - 36 with lots of stretch since it is a knit
Hips: 36  unstretched but leave room for movement
Length: 39 - 39-1/2
Fabric: Rayon & wool just like the St. John Santana knit
Care: Dry clean
Condition: Very good - very very light whitish mark on the back lower left shoulder or lightened.  I could not tell if someone has brushed against it with powder or it was just lightened.  It would probably come out with a cleaning or just leave it as it is not that noticeable - price has been reduced greatly because of any imperfections.

Care Instructions

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.

Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.

Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.

The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements. We hope you enjoy what you purchased but we know sometimes things do not fit quite as you would like or the color is wrong.  In that case, we do allow one exchange or a store credit on any item that you want. There are about 2,000 items in the store and more are being added all the time so you have a large selection to choose from.

You must email before returning an item so I can give you the information that you need to exchange the item.
