<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 9839165, member: 1476"]They're both unusual, aren't they? Party dresses. How does one get in 'em? I'd think the first, given length, drop waist and surface ornamentation, dates to the 1920s. I wouldn't be surprised if the second one, given the short sleeves and tied waist, wasn't reworked in the 1940s from an earlier dress. </p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
