Sain yst\u00e4v\u00e4lt\u00e4 kes\u00e4isen vintagemekon joskus vuosi-pari sitten. En ehtinyt sit\u00e4 silloin kunnostaa, joten mekko on maannut korjattavien kasassa siit\u00e4 l\u00e4htien. T\u00e4n\u00e4 kes\u00e4n\u00e4 tarvitsin lis\u00e4\u00e4 kes\u00e4mekkoja joten kaivelin mekon kasasta. Yll\u00e4tyksekseni se ei sitten lopulta kaivannutkaan muuta kuin irto-miehustaan uuden vy\u00f6t\u00e4r\u00f6nauhan ja pesun. Sainkin siis itselleni helposti kelpo kes\u00e4mekon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

T\u00e4m\u00e4 mekko on siit\u00e4 erikoinen, ett\u00e4 sen ajoittaminen on osoittautunut kinkkisemm\u00e4ksi kuin yleens\u00e4. Siin\u00e4 ei ole vetoketjua eik\u00e4 mit\u00e4\u00e4n muutakaan avattavaa osaa, joka yleens\u00e4, muutamia poikkeuksia lukuunottamatta, viittaa 20-lukuun. Kaikki saumanvarat on huoliteltu k\u00e4sin, joka viittaa 40-lukuun tai siit\u00e4 vanhempaan. Nopealla vilkaisulla se vaikuttaa 20-lukuiselta syvine p\u00e4\u00e4nteineen, irtomiehustoineen, v\u00e4ljine mitoituksineen ja helmapituuksineen. Kuitenkin p\u00e4\u00e4llystetyt koristenapit ja yl\u00e4lantion seutuvilla olevat ter\u00e4v\u00e4k\u00e4rkiset koristeleikkaukset viittaavat enemm\u00e4n 40-luvun alkupuoleen tai 30-lukuun kuin 20-lukuun. Syv\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4ntie irtomiehustalla ei kuitenkaan oikein sovi 30- eik\u00e4 40-lukuun. Polvipituinen helma on 30-luvulle aivan liian lyhyt, mutta k\u00e4visi 40-lukuun. On toki mahdollista, ett\u00e4 joku on lyhent\u00e4nyt helman my\u00f6hemmin. Alasp\u00e4in levenev\u00e4, kaistaleista ommeltu helma ja ter\u00e4v\u00e4k\u00e4rkiset leikkaukset taas eiv\u00e4t ole yht\u00e4\u00e4n 20-luvun tyyli\u00e4. Miss\u00e4\u00e4n tapauksessa puku ei ole 50-lukuinen vaan vanhempi, mutta kuinka vanha? Itse ehk\u00e4 sijoittaisin t\u00e4m\u00e4n 30-luvun alkupuoliskolle kaikkein mieluiten. <\/p>\n\n\n

I got a summery vintage dress from a friend year or two ago. I didn’t have time to do maintenance to it back then, so it’s been waiting ever since. This summer I needed more summer dresses, so I decided to finally tackle this task. To my surprise, I didn’t have to do anything else than wash the dress and replace wornout waistband of the separable bodice front. So after all it was very easy way to get a new dress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This dress is quite tricky when it comes to dating it. It doesn’t have zipper nor any other opening, which usually refers to 20’s. All seam allowances have been secured by hand stitching, which usually refers to 40’s or earlier. With quick glance it seems very 1920’s with deep open neckline, separable bodice front, loose fit and hem length just on the knee. However covered buttons like this, were more popular in the30’s and 40’s, not so much in the 20’s. Deep neckline with separable front is not that much of a 30’s or 40’s thing. Knee-length skirt is too short for 30’s, but would go for 40’s. All though it is possible that someone has shortened the hemline. A-line skirt with vertical cuts and diamond shaped cuts on the hips are not 20’s style either. What ever the case, this is definitely older than 50’s, but how old? Perhaps I would place this on the first half of 30’s rather than anything else. <\/p>\n\n\n
