I checked the label resource and this label, at least the same color, is similar to FuzzyLizzies's 70s skirt. I'm pretty sure this top is late 80s, maybe even 90s. It's very high quality ( I know! Anne Klein?!)

It is a top and not a dress. it barely covers my mannequin's butt. What date do you think this is? Don't pay attention to the description. I was cloning another lisiting.

with the exaggerated peplum, I'd guess 80's and it probably had a matching pencil skirt. It's very cute, another Rose Bowl find?
My friend and Rose Bowl neighbor said he had a good day despite the heat
 
Sandra, I was just going to post that I thought it must have had a slim skirt to go with it, and eel beat me to it! I agree with the 80s dating as well. It is lovely; do you have a skirt you can show it with?

I went to Rose Bowl on Sunday -- OY was it HOT!!
I left by noon, even though I'd not done that much actual shopping (probably more socializing than shopping!)

Some friends of mine have a regular booth there & they always seem to do pretty consistent business there - but they said that this last Sunday was their worst Rose Bowl ever.

Glad someone did well! LOL!
 
I didn't go to the Rose Bowl this Sunday. I was planning on it, but was swamped with listing stuff on my site. I bought this top years ago and just pulled it out of storage. I did buy the Estevez there though. I did very well last time. Got several gems and spent less than $100. Not bad for the Rose Bowl. I will be going next time though.

So I have no idea how to even price this. I'm looking and looking for comparables, but nothing. I didn't even really think Anne Klein would be of interest, but the design is pretty and very on trend. It probably would've been better to sell it in the Fall when all of the exaggerated peplums came out.
 
I agree that this was probably paired with a skinny skirt.

I wonder how long this is from waist to end of the peplum - i seem to think that they are still showing (or at least girls are still wearing) leggings with super short skirts or not so super short skirts. Would it be an idea to show it that way? Or what about showing it with cigarette pants or a skinny jean? Just for the folks who aren't going to try to create the whole 80s look.
