I’m assuming that it’s from the 60s but the side metal zipper made me wonder if it’s a little older. It has a 3” deep hem with hem tape. It doesn’t look like it was ever altered. Thanks!

Ooh, how dramatic - I love it! I think you are right about 60s, even with the metal zipper. It looks like velvet? They may have felt the heavier fabric needed a sturdier closer.
