Hi Guys! I would like your help dating these dresses

I bought these all at the same store on the same day. They are all handmade. I'm questioning whether or not the purple one is vintage because it doesn't have a musty smell but it does seem a little retro to me. It has sheer bell sleeves. They all have nylon/plastic zippers.

Thank you!

 

thanks for responding! so the purple one is not vintage then?

 

the red one definitely smells vintage too haha ^^

 

They all look early 70s - probably home made. Nice fabrics!

 

Agreed: early '70s.

Washing them and air drying should remove the musty smell. It has nothing to do with age, and is a result of poor storage. Garments from last year can smell musty if they're not stored well.
