Robin Garland was a model turned designer with stores in Sydney's fashionable Double Bay and St James's Arcade. She was a model in the 40's and 50's and turned to designing swimwear in the late 60's so although this dress certainly has a 60's feel, my fashion research leads me to believe it's probably 80's does 60's. The quality is superb and such a classic style it's so wearable and such a collectible piece from Australia Fashion History.
Fair preloved condition, some yellowing from storage on contrast white band, hard to spot when worn.
