It appears to be a homemade prom dress (or maybe bridesmaid's), or is there perhaps a label? Lovely aqua color!Teresas Treasures

Is that the dress to which those labels belong? The dress looks quite late 70s to me.... I can't recall when the red, blue & white Union label stopped being used, but I "thought" it was prior to the end of the 70s.

Well, I was confused about that Union label--I thought that particular one was used for a limited period of time, but it was used beyond the 70s for sure. However, though this looks at first glance like it "should" be 80s, it's got a late 70s feel to the skirt. The length and fall of the tiers along with the overall silhouette of the skirt look like what was being done in the late 70s. In the 80s, I seem to recall that the tiers got "flouncier" and shorter, and the look was "perkier" than this. Though the bodice does look a bit more 80-ish. The big flower at the hip I've seen in both eras. So, maybe a solid cusper?

This label is 1974 - 1995, so that's a help on one end. That looks very 80s to me.

Another vote for Very 'Eighties. Early eighties as per others' opinions.
