    I wanted to add this label to the resource but I am unsure of the age, it comes across as 80s but may be earlier as I have read that monsoon clothing was originally produced in India from 1973.

    It's a bit hard to see the shape of your dress in the photo. If you can get a better picture, maybe on a hanger, we might be able to help more.

    I suspect 80s though. I do remember that label, I think from the 80s.

    Here's a better picture, I just noticed there is a very long size zip also, but am not sure if this is a later addition to save undoing the buttons :)

    It looks very 80s to me, even the colours. I'm not really seeing 70s.

    You may be able to tell by examining the stitching if the zip is an addition, but I think it could be original to the dress.
