Need a date on a bedjacket

[vintagemeggie]

The label on this bedjacket is unreadable. It looks like it was once a white tag with dark blue lettering. Did Vanity Fair ever have dark blue lettering? Anywho, anyone want to guess an age.

TIA

There are quite a few labels here to compare with what you have.

Yes, I checked in the Lingerie Resource but none had the dark blue thread. I'll go have another peak though.

Oops...didn't mean to sound short or rude or anything...just was juggling a kid and a cat while typing.

It's not my area either - but for some reason I get more of a 50s feel from this - I think because of the elasticated sleeve-ens???
But do hang on until someone who KNOWS comes along! ;)

I am thinking 60s on this one. I think the 50s label is light blue.

Hey Chris! You want to share those drugs you were taking yesterday???



I think what Chris meant to say was, "Hmmm, gosh - can't help much from the looks of that label!"



I JUST COULDN'T RESIST!!!!

(and in any case, I don't believe Vanity Fair had any labels with dark blue lettering, only light blue. Van Raalte... did they have dark blue?? Pauline... are you around??) I am thinking the same thing as Margaret. I am getting more 50s than 60s.

I figured she was pondering a label that she was not showing, Ms. Smarty Pants.

I thought Vanity Fair used darker lettering more Nowsville but i could be really really wrong too. have not perused a lingerie underthing department like that in awhile. (no dept. stores around!)
