This came from an Estate of a very lovely woman in Santa Ana, Ca. She was a writer in her early years in the 1950s, and documented most of her clothing like some people did during that era. Each garment had a post-it taped to the front, with a small description of where and when it was worn. Unfortunately, by the time I got to this dress, the post-it was already gone. But I do know that it held very special value to her, as most of her pieces did. 💕
