I did find several others, just by googling, all appear date to the 50s.

None give further info on the label though.

It's definitely '50's. I found some ads in the Newspaper Archives but didn't find this dress - or any information on the label. As Ruth mentioned there are lots of them listed - the one on RL looks a lot like your dress in a different lace. .

Definitely 1950's. Sometimes it is difficult to find information on all labels. Such a pretty dress.

yes 1950s, zipper plastic? looks like it from the pictures. If so then it may be a replacement. that de[ends if it is coiled to teeth.

Also the fabric looks like a brocade in the pictures but then again, in another picture it looks like embroidery.
