Well... if you "google" Sarmi velvet dress you will find quite a few with prices all over the place. We can't tell you what it's worth, but that would give you a general idea of what you might shoot for. The Gem app will also show you quite a few - https://gem.app/search?terms=Sarmi...

Greetings Ellen. We would enjoy seeing your vintage items and hopefully could give you information about them that you didn't know. It's fun to share our vintage finds.
