<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 377299, member: 33"]Thanks to [USER=1476]@Debora[/USER] for giving me the idea to look for a label, because I found one! It doesn't identify an original designer, but it's from the Fashion Originators Guild. It looks a lot like the label in this Wikipedia article: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fashion_Originators_Guild_of_America" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fashion_Originators_Guild_of_America" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fashion_Originators_Guild_of_America</a></p><p><br /></p><p>And I also found this, so far: <a href="https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/fashion-originators-guild/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/fashion-originators-guild/" rel="nofollow">https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/fashion-originators-guild/</a> -- The label in mine looks like the 6th one down, which also is like the one in Wikipedia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I'm intrigued, and will find out more about the Guild.
