    Evening all, can anyone tell me if these are 50's 60s or 70s?

    Long pointed collars = 1970s.

    Boy, those sleeveless ones look mid 60's to so early 70's, my mom and her friends sported those all over California in the summer to the beach and on vacations to Disneyland and Clear Lake !

    I think late 60's early 70's also. Wear them with clam diggers. :)

    I looked up the RN 4861 and it is associated with Max Davis & Sons. I could not find any other information about the company/label. I don't know much about vintage clothing but they look more like 1960s.

    I could see Mary Tyler Moore wearing these tops on the Dick Van Dyke show.

    The fabrics certainly look 1960s but those collars are pretty unmistakable as 1970s. As is the polyester content. Earlier they would have been Peter Pan. (Here's a 1966 pattern for a sleeveless blouse.) Think blouses weren't "fashion forward" so they're sending a mixed message as to era.

    Jivvy the research is my favorite

    Fashion is not my field and I'm having trouble seeing just how pointy the collars of the flowered shirts are...

    I think the collar below is less pointy than the yellow...but definitely more pointy than peter pan.

    And I promise this pic is from the very early sixties.

    Well, those could both be descriptions of my mom, but I'm the one frowning at the camera. :joyful:
