Lorrie Deb San Francisco Vintage Velvet Empire Waist maxi Dress Purple

Has a hole on front of the dress. See last two photos. One is up close picture and one is a far away picture. Seems like an easy fix that could be hidden very easily. I didn’t notice it til after I took the dress off and hung it. I would fix the hole but I’d rather have someone else fix it that’s more confident. Such a beautiful unique dress. Beautiful deep purple color. 1960s. Gives me witchy Halloween vibes. Union made. Size 7/8 I wear a size small/medium and it fits well. I also have a small bust. See measurements below.
