Dress has "Trend" Zipper

I have this lovely lace dress that has a metal Trend zipper. No labels other than a size 7 tag. Can you help with dating this?

1960s, by the length, sleeves and lace treatment.

Thanks, that's what I was thinking. Couldn't find anything on Trend brand metal zippers.

Zippers can be unreliable as dating tools, as dressmakers can keep them in their stashes for decades - and vintage lovers like myself collect them for restorations. They're often replaced, especially the older metal zippers.

I agree with Melanie on a '60s dating.
