    RIP VFG Member Claire aka claireshaeffer

    So sorry to hear this, and I’m sure her loss will be felt so much in many places, including here. Thoughts are with her loved ones.

    Savita

    The lovely Liz Eggleston has quite a number of vintage magazine scans on her website, worth searching it for ‘Savita’ as quite a few results pop up, which I assume are the same Savita boutique and gives you an idea of cost etc. as well as various designs and dates. How interesting that you’re...

    Help Dating A St Michael Uk Sundress pls

    It's cute! Agree with Sarah, it's a bit later than 1950s. I'd say most likely early 70s with the cut and design, and the useful info above really helps narrow it down :). It could be intended as a beach dress - if you also think the package holiday exploded in the UK in the early 70s with...

    Laura Ashley Dyers and Printers Smock Dress

    I agree 70s decade wise, and agree on mid-ish 70s. If so it may not necessarily have been shortened. It all appears to have similar overlocking? Am I right that part of the care label we can see is a 40 beneath another (unseen) number? - as this I *think* was introduced in the U.K. c. 1976...

    Help with a Biba??? item.

    It looks like the House of Fraser (UK dept store) relaunched label from memory, which would make it post 2010.

    Help me translate a receipt for a coat Louis Feraud «mademoiselle»

    Just a thought, perhaps the receipt is from a dress agency / consignment shop or re-seller? That would explain the later date. I haven’t got great Italian, but maybe it would help if you could translate the printed words at least. Handwriting is always tricky. I think convenuto is something...

    Sumrie Original brand

    Hi. I’ve seen a lot of Sumrie men’s dinner and formal suits, and I think I’ve had ladies ones on occasion - all from various decades. Good quality ready to wear stuff usually. If you look up Harris Sumrie (founder) on Wikipedia it gives you some basic company history - originally manufactured...

    Help Dating Monsoon Mandarin Jacket Please

    Hi Katherine, Lovely set! It definitely looks like a version of the early Monsoon label to me. They did collaborate with other designers in the early days - I think maybe it says Shekhar Prints. I’ve not seen that one before though. There is an Indian designer I found when I googled called...

    UK laws and regulations around selling vintage fabric

    Hi, I believe you're correct in that if you are manufacturing any upholstered items for sale commercially, or they are post '88 and you wish to resell commercially you have to adhere to the fire safety regs law - but I don't know that it would affect private purchasers buying to use materials...
