I am seeing a 40s bridesmaid dress. It immediately made me think of the vintage dress my maid of honor wore at my wedding in 1980.

New today at MagsRags.net, a 50s to 60s full skirt dress in autumn earthy colors, size large

I was a 4H member too! But even though we were a farming community, I was herded into a girl's club - cooking, sewing, flower arranging, baby sitting. No animals!

My vote is for 70s, based on the patchwork quilt print. I've never seen that kind of print used for earlier garments. Let's see what others think.

I am bumping this very old thread because I have some information to add about the National Coat and Suit Recovery Board, and also wanted a place to park a potential resource archive. I try not to add to my stock of coats these days - so expensive to ship! But a friend asked my to take two that...

I have always though that modal/tencel/lyocell were bio based as well. https://www.tencel.com/fiber-story Do they occupy a space somewhere between biopolymer and synthetic polymer?
