How do you go, Alfred Fiandaca?

Hello Good People of the VFG,

This Fiandaca Couterier dress was recently entrusted to me - okay, that sounds too fancy - someone else just didn't want it - and I have a few questions.

Firstly, do I have this dress styled the correct way? I have the tag on the inside - left.

It is dying for me to take the rest of my mannequin out of storage, of course. I was debating about the ties being optional spaghetti straps or for hanging, but as you can see, that is covered elsewhere.

I have it two different ways in the front, then back view

I am debating how I am going to freshen it up.

Excuse the poor photos - I just pulled it out of a bag moments ago....and you can tell! I was competely blind Black Blog Bingo.

Chris, Chris, Chris! Thank you for gracing our cyber halls again!

I am struggling with the dress—inside left for the label? What is it like (is it even possible?) with the label in back? Are we looking at 70s? Chiffon?

Haha. I read that on a small screen and initially thought you typed "grace our eyeballs".

Yes, 70s was my immediate reaction. So yes and yes

To answer your question, there are actually arm escape hatches under the flounce - higher and tighter like days of yor. It will prob make more sense on the mannequin. If the tag was centered on the back, vs in a side seam, hiking it around would be an unusual situation. I was thinking the first two photos were of the front and the last photo looks like it was the back but obviously it's open to interpretation.
