Ooh Help Me Date This Dress!

[elvenom]

Hi Ladies,

I found this great dress yesterday. The tag says "Society". I researched the RN# and its a company called Society Lingerie. Also has an ILGWU label. Is it 70's. The material is acetate? What style dress would you call this, just a floral maxi? I love the sleeves!

Hi Erst!!

I would say this is late 60s, maybe early 70s, and it is fabulous!!!

Talk about eye-poppin colours. The sleeves are great.
Not really wing or butterfly.....bell?

I think I would go with pop art floral maxi, or something
similar. At the time these were also called patio dresses,
but maxi would give you more hits I think.

I'd say early '70s and guess at polyester rather than acetate.

i thought so too, but the label says 100% acetate.
