1960s Malcolm Starr Ivory Silk Dress w Rhinestone & Bead Adornments designer-marni It closes with a series

It closes with a series of domed black buttons on the back of the neck

would be a fairly simple job to make some changes to make it perfect again but is sold and priced as being all original
