Would love to hear your thoughts on dating this one.
Initially I thought this to be an 80s does 40s dress. Mainly because of the label center back placement, the label sadly was cut off. No sign of care labels in other places though, which could point out to an earlier date. This is probably a British dress, as I bought it in a shop that has mainly British second hand clothes. I’m still not sure, that could be 1970s as well. Strangely it reminds me of women’s uniform dresses from Star Trek original series. But could that be a clue on dating hahaha?
It has belt loops, pullover design, the fabric is probably a polyester jersey knit.

The fabric and elastic waist looks like late 1970s to 80s to me. The easy fit was really the thing then.
