I would say late 60s or early 70s. Very nice dress.

Agree with dating. Interesting that it’s made of ramie and acrylic blend. Ramie is a natural fibre similar to linen https://vintagefashionguild.org/resources/item/fabric/ramie/

Asking for an opinion on whether it is real or not, is the same as asking for authentication (anyone who tells you it is authentic / real or not, is giving you their opinion). Sorry to disappoint, but we don’t offer opinions or help about authenticity on these forums, please see the forum rules...

It was made by a home sewer, from a Vogue Sewing Pattern. You won't be able to find out who made it, it could be anyone. You can only try and identify the sewing pattern, but that isn't easy, as Midge has already found out.

Home sewn. These were high end sewing patterns by Vogue that came with a label. I believe Vogue Paris Originals were created by specific French designers.

It's the same as before. When you post a new thread, there is a box to tick at the bottom If you want to watch an existing thread, there's a box at the top right called Watch/Unwatch (depending if you are already watching it or not) When you click watch, again you are given the option of...

Oooh that one really is a puzzler. I am leaning towards 1980s. In my experience 50s/60s dresses are more likely to say 'Made in England', rather than 'Made in UK'. As Shusteroo says, the measurements and how they relate to the Size 14 might help. It's a tricky one.

Thanks Nicole! Been a long time coming.

Kurta’s are usually knee/calf length, worn over trousers. They al usually have side slits. This looks full length to me? Good point about the buttons. It could certainly be a woman’s garment. I didn’t mean it was definitely male. I wondered about Abaya too.

There are women’s versions of these, and many different regional versions.

Gorgeous The Ianthe design is from the original Art Nouveau era, but was only first printed by Liberty in 1967 when there was a significant Art Nouveau revival. You can read about here...

And I think the pocket is just a useful pocket! For whatever one might need to carry

one of these? Seems like there’s many variations. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thawb

I think you are right that’s it’s a traditional robe. Not sure exactly from where. It might be men’s wear.

Well, we can see if others agree. I had turned off the default Style for most users, but have just reinstated it.

Hi Plousia I reverted this back to the original setting, so these are no longer in bold, because I realise there is another, more subtle indicator of Unread Threads. When viewing the forum list, if there are Unread threads, the 'speech bubble' will be purple and with lines in it. If it's grey...

If you are not seeing the forums with the VFG logo and colour scheme, you need to change a setting. The forum should look like this: NOT like this: If you are seeing the Default blue Xenforo Style, here are instructions to change it: 1) Scroll to the very bottom of the page 2) Click...

Hi MJ It does not look correct, and the issue is related to you being an administrator. I will address this in the Administrator/Xenforo maintenance forum, as it doesn't affect anyone else. Ruth

there’s also a block of Latest Threads on the front page, on the right on desktop and at the bottom on phones

Hi Barbara There is a filter for Show Only: Unread threads, that you can remove by clicking the X (right hand side of screen in the grey bar). If you want to make this permanent, you can change your default filter setting: Go to filters at the right hand side, untick Unread, and tick Save...

So you are okay now? It sounds like you had our page magnified somehow. Glad you managed to resolve it.

Have you ticked the box for Stay Logged In when you log in?

OMG We can search our DMs now. From the search box, we have the option of search everywhere or search DMs

Your wish is my command, plousia. Done. Plousia meant the forum title on the front page. Not the thread itself

Thanks for feedback. You mean showing the forum name in bold if there are unread threads? We might be able to bring that back.

I'm hoping I've solved that issue altogether now. It will only have affected Administrators, I think.

I thought so!

Yeah I love that we have emoji reactions now
