If finished by zig zag, you'd have to take a look at other details (like Sheila already mentioned) like zipper placement and zipper style. Eighties draw their inspiration from the Thirties.<br />Here's a similar dress to yours, by Jean Patou:<br />http://artdecoblog.tumblr.com/post/36054629212/defunctfashion-jean-patou-c-1929-timeless<br />As a famous maker of the times, those designs would have been much copied.julihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342879664624677962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859347726001714274.post-32193414804218411982013-03-19T23:14:03.436-07:002013-03-19T23:14:03.436-07:00This is so Jean Harlow-esque!
