Good Morning!

I found this gorgeous Vassarette. I haven't the foggiest on the dating this garment. Can the label give info? And if so, what should I be looking for on vintage lingerie?

THAT LOOKS LIKE A COMPUTERISED TAG ON oopppss on there, which l began having on stock in our shops in uk in late 70's early 80s....so l would date that around there..looks like a nylon zip???
 
Yes, it is a nylon zip. I noticed on the tag that it said 5682, that is why I asked about dating this by tag. But that may mean very little.
Thanks
 
Are you talking about an RN lookup. Here is a link. Is that number the RN number?

I mostly date lingerie by how it looks and the materials used. Some labels do help, like the Vanity Fair ones. I think yours is late 70s, early 80s.
 
No problem. Yes, I was wondering if you could date by a label and I do appreciate the linkup. :clapping: I put it up on ebay as early 80's just to be safe. :D

Thank you, Linda!

Oh smack me in the head! I put "Vassarette" in the search and it came up with only 2 items and little info. What I should have put is lingerie. Maybe starting this love of Vintage in my mid-50's does indeed have its down side.

Neverless, I must start somewhere, and why not from the best. :D

Thank you for pointing the way.
