This Week\'s BustownModern auctions!

Ok - here are a few of the things I have going up this week!

40s Adele Simpson:

50s Party Dress: (darn this dress - why does it have to be too small?)

Another Party Dress:

40s shoes (relist from non-payment!):

Cute 60s Lion Wrap Skirt:

Unworn 60s Sarmi Dress (1 of 3) :

Great SILK 40s dress (alas no label) BTW - I'm judging by the length of it, the amount of fabric and the fact that it is silk that it is safe to consider this a New Look piece... yes?

Fantastic Anessa! Photographs are just lovely. I do tend to think of new look as being very full skirted myself - gorgeous dress though!

I have to agree with you there but I'm having trouble dating it properly. The only thing I can come up with is that it must have been a very nice earlier piece. I still get very confused when it comes to the crossover pieces.

At first glance I thought of it being early 40s but when I re-examined it I thought it would have had to be later, for the above stated reasons.

Maybe I'm just overthinking it? Right now I need one of those smilies w/ the head banging against a brick wall. It's Friday morning and I've put in 55 hours this week already. How is that possible? ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz

Hopefully someone else will be able to help - I would have said 40s from the cut of the shoulders and bodice, but not quite wasp waisted enough to be a new look style. I'll do some looking too!
