Stunning 100% cotton floor length Marimekko dress has long sleeves and a center back zipper closure. The bold, mod pattern is executed in fuchsia, gold, and periwinkle.  Four rows of stitching are intact at the hem, evidence that this 1966 dress is a rarity that has never been altered.  So many I see have been shortened or shortened and then let back down to the original length, which always causes a line of fade.  

This stunning example is pristine and judging from the overall condition and the condition of the tags was not worn much, if at all.  Labeled Marimekko Suomi-Finland, 42/14, 1966, 100% cotton, with separate care instruction tag.  A wonderful vintage dress that is truly editorial material, museum quality, or suited for the most discerning vintage collector. 

Shown also is a file photo in the same pattern in a sleeveless iconic Marimekko style, called "Monrepos" in 1967  by Annika Rimala.
