Group 3 Image A This gown is somewhat of a mystery. While the style and details lend themselves to an early date, there are details on the inside such as the lining, and stitching which would indicate a later date. Dark navy blue paisley jacquard is trimmed with wide fabric band which appears to have grape clusters. The sleeves are fully lined. Back detail includes a banded bow at waist. Circa 1916-1920, prior to the Flapper.  Group 3 Image C
