K taking one right now. No it is not a metal zipper that's why I'm all confused b/c everything I read said Ann's vogue shoppe was in business in 50 to early 60s. Thanks so much.
 
Here they are.

It looks like perhaps Ann might have been a seamstress? The label looks more like a dressmakers label than a store label. But I have no source for that, just a hunch. I think your dress is early 60s. Pretty!
 
It looks to be pink with an overlay and then metallic gold on top of that. Anyone have an opinion on what the fabric of the overlay may be? Chiffon or maybe organza ? I have no clue, it feels rough. I'll upload a pic.
 
Also, I agree with early 60s dating, but Ann's Vogue Shoppe still comes up in business directories as a bridal shop with the same address and a current phone number. It appears to still be in business.
 
I live in Cleveland area and have had that same label - very well made. I believe Laura is correct about Ann's Vogue - that jives with my research.
