Also, what's the date on this one??

Thanks!
 
i agree with Lizzie (I was even about to ask about bust darts!) -- I think the collar goes in front.
but it looks kinda cute the other way, too...
 
That's way I was thinking too - it looks cute both ways.
I don't think there are darts no... which is kinda weird.
 
How wild! I'm thinking the collar goes in the back. ...a few thoughts...

It looks like there's a zipper down the center of the collar side. If so, I'd definitely think the collar goes in back.

If it has a side zipper, it would *usually* be placed on the left side, though sometimes they are on the right.

The pleating of the skirt also seems to have slightly more purposeful detail, with the wide, non-pleated section at the center, that I'd expect on the front of the dress, across the belly area, on the no-collar side.
 
I'd also go for collar at the front - the fullness for the bust is there and not on the other side. I think the zipper down the front will just be some sort of adaptation of the shirt-waister style dress.
 
Oop. You're right. That collar side looks baggy when it's on the back, whereas the other one doesn't.
