Hi there,
I sold a dress by Josefa today and was contacted by the buyer letting me know its going to be used in a fashion show fund raiser directly for the designer who is now in a convalescent home and needs medical treatment. Its going to be May 12 in Mexico.

They wanted to know any info I might have on the designer and the personal history of the dress...Also if I had any other pieces as they are interested in buying more for the show. Sadly I do not have much info for them or any other items. I thought maybe someone here might have something hidden in their collection they may want to sell or may know some info I could pass on. It would be greatly appreciated. I will post pics of my dress that just sold. Its really a piece of art, one of a kind, very well made.

Thanks so much! Kerry
 
here is the one I had. all hand done, with embroidery, ribbon work, & hand loomed fabric.

hi, no not my ebay store, but etsy. my store there is Vintage Stardust and it will show in sold items I believe. If your item turns out to be by Josefa, and your interested in selling it, I will pass on your info to them. Thanks!
 
No I just checked. The dress I have is by Jorelle. That name sounds familiar though, maybe I had something in the past.
 
I found this on the trademark website

Maybe try a search for Josefa Ibarra
 
Thanks Brenda! that info is helpful :)
I thought my dress was an earlier item maybe 70s, so it helps to date it to early 80s instead.
 
Great Dress 50sFashions!
Do you want to email me a price you would be interested in selling it to them for +shipping, and possibly measurements? The buyer is back east (not in Mexico where the fashion show will actually be) and paid me right away with paypal with a confirmed address.
My personal email is kairyb at gmail dot com. not sure if that is ok to post or not, hope so.
