    hello all! came across this set, can't quite tell when it was made / what decade the styling is based on. it appears to be handmade , seems like linen? any help would be much appreciated!

    What kind of zipper, seam work... Just looking at it, it could be 1960s, early to mid.

    I believe the top has a metal zipper, and the bottom has a plastic. I'll have to take a look at seams to give you a better idea
     
  4. Yes, I agree with early to mid '60s. It's 1920s inspired. The nylon zipper in the skirt may be a replacement: I would expect the same type to be in both pieces. It's probably either linen or linen-look rayon. The fabric reads as real linen to me though.
