<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 8393679, member: 36"]I thought 1950s right off, but early to mid rather than circa 1960. The necklines are the giveaway to an old jewelry seller. There were a lot of small dress stores at the time, and professional seamstresses. These are beyond the gifts of most home sewers, especially messing with satin (been there done that, don't want to do it again!) but not beyond professional machines in a smaller professional outfit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
