I feel like this is from the 60s - do you all agree?

This cardboard "stay" is still attached to the stand-up collar to keep the shape.

70's for sure. With a hint of edwardian influence. I have a couple of very similar pieces from the UK which were all made in the early 1970s (upstairs downstairs was on tv, the early edwardian influence was everywhere...from what my mum tells me everyone watched it!)
 
Agree with 70s. My brother was married in 1971, and I was married in 1974. Both my sister-in-law and I were trying on dresses like this. And I was a bridesmaid in a wedding around that time, and our dress bodices were very, very much like that! The sleeve trim on yours is a bit of a different flair--very stylish!
 
I took a look at some family photos. A cousin got married in 1971 and she wore a dress much like this. I know vintagebaubes said about the same but small world, huh?
