    Does anyone know the date of this item? The top half looks crocheted and appears to be little spiderwebs. There’s no tags. I attached images. Thanks so much in advance :)

    Can you please tell us more? There are many dates this garment could be from and more information would help.
    • fabric composition: eg, silk, synthetic, cotton?
    • is it a knit or a weave?
    • silhouette: how does it display with the ties undone? It doesn't appear to have any bust shaping: is it straight down?
    • how are the seams and hem sewn?

    It's not crochet. Some kind of lace.

    The main fabric looks like a textured weave as far as I can tell from photos.

    It doesn't look like an antique piece, but more modern.

    It looks more modern to me too... like mid 1970s. What do the seams look like and what is the fabric of the main body?
