Love.love.love your photo work. Subject, composition, lighting, dynamic, the whimsey and humour in some - everything is wonderful! (If I had to pick, to date, I think the two Fenced Dragon series are my faves). Congrats on the self publication of your book and please continue sharing your...

lovely!

Talk about taking quilling to a whole new level!

Oh, what a treat to tour this place! Fascinating. Sue

I love hearing stories like this pertaining to antique/vintage items. Thanks for sharing Jonathan! Sue

I believe the little hairs are probably mohair. Mohair blend basketweave tweed? Sue

A lovely article, about an interesting, and lovely sounding couple. Heartwrenching ending though. Thank you Amanda for sharing. Sue

Awesome!!! I will be seeing Cher live in Toronto next Monday. I'm a huge fan of her's and am so excited!

I have several very old shetland lace baby shawls, that are sooooooooo soft and lovely and like Jonathan have never seen a dress made of this. Shetland lace is a knit lace. Sue

the Tony Hawk photo is pretty cool!

Lovely! I'm with Karin on early Edwardian era (1910s). Sue

I agree with Nicole on this being a polyester double knit. Crimplene tends to have more of a pebbly texture to it. I think this is late 60s, possibly very early 70s. Sue

Beautiful!

Those of us in Canada, can't use the Amazon.com site, so here is Jonathan's page on Amazon.ca (includes the Sixties Fashion book): http://www.amazon.ca/s/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=15121&creative=390961&field-keywords=jonathan%20walford&linkCode=ur2&tag=thevintfashgu-20&url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks...

these are wonderful! Thanks Amanda!

Very pretty. Crochet, late 30s. Sue

looks 60s to me too Sue :)

My first impression is that it is earlier. The bodice of the dress with the short sleeves and midriff ribbing and also the stripe pattern make me think late 40s. Can you tell what it is knit from, wool? acrylic? Are there any closures on the dress? Sue

I thought the same Jonathan. Still, what an amazing find, and I'm sure there must be some couture/designer items in the lot. I LOVE stories like this! Sue

Love this! Thanks Lizzie!

Poignant, haunting, beautiful

I'm with Jonathan - late 70s/early 80s. (and yes, detail shots would be helpful)

Wonderful! Great find!

Amazing, beautiful gown (and the model is pretty stunning too)

:wub:

lovely

I had a suit, rust brown, almost identical to this that I wore with high boots in the 70s. The jacket I often wore with jeans and the same boots. Loved it. No, I don't think it is too early for Autumn listings. Most of the stores here (Ontario) started clearing out their summer stuff...

Fascinating site...thank you Melanie!
