    Certainly a whole lot like it. Seems a little off to me, but could just be photo artifact.

    I figure they probably are but I am not sure how to determine precisely.

    Had a great day at a small-ish thrift about 20 minutes from my home...not just one, or two, but THREE vintage 1960s/70s knit dresses by Rudi Gernreich. Some of you may remember the splash (pun intended) he made in the fashion world with his "monokini" design in 1964. Here's a photo of the best of the three dresses I found and also a photo of Gernreich's monokini. Don't you know I searched that thrift with a fine-tooth comb hoping to find one! (They've sold for $1000+.)

    I'd wear that ... dress. The monokini would currently (on me) be best used to scare small children and larger men.

    Very nice everyone. The mod clothes take me back to a far out time. :)

    I was going to say the same thing.
    I believe even if they are not, they are still quite popular with buyers if you intend to sell.
    Only found one goblet like that in my travels many years ago and sold it on ebay.

    It does look like a match on the water goblets. Thank you! There are so many misidentified pieces on Pinterest and Etsy it's ridiculous.
