    Hello there,
    please help dating this dress! 80s?
    Also, do you guys think that those colors have some special significance?! Because it's the German flag...?
    Any insight appreciated.
     
  2. Hi Esther, I had a dress (black and white stripes) in a similar style in 1981 but from the label I think yours is more modern. If you have a look at Celine in the label resource, it's similar to a label found in a 2010 hat. It may not be that modern but I can't pin it down for you, sorry.

    Yes, that is why i'm uncertain, because of the label. But it can't be that modern, I have this dress in my possession since at least 2008-2009. I first had the impression that it's early 80s. Also, the care and composition labels look older to me, here some more pics.
    Thanks for you input!

  4. Thanks for the extra pics. I'm unfamiliar with the care labels but those very narrow seams that are serged with no seam allowance are a modern construction technique so in my opinion it's unlikely to be as old as '80s.
