Date on western style dress

This must be a square-dance dress, and I think they're very hard to date as the styling didn't change a whole lot over the years. I would say you're right on 60s or 70s--probably don't need to be more specific than that. I'd call it a 60s/70s whatever, whatever.... I have one I'm going to list as a "dolly" or sissy dress, I think, rather than a square-dance dress.

Alright, thanks Anne :)
 
Yep, 70's, square dancing dress. I don't know what you have invested in it, but they're pretty common. To be authentic, it needs one of those ginormous, layered crinolines to fluff the heck out of it!
