Afterwards i realized it was a Emma Domb dress(with union symbole). Didnt know anything about her but thanks to you I have now got to know the interesting story and also that there might be collectors interested in it. I had an idea I would change the dress a bit but now I dont know if i dare based on the history! What is the price of a Emma Domb wedding dress in good shape,maxidress late 60s?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316866123320766755.post-46005666658211212772019-07-20T18:50:03.252-07:002019-07-20T18:50:03.252-07:00I found an image of an Emma Domb wedding dress fro...I found an image of an Emma Domb wedding dress from 1969 that has daisy trim identical to my wedding dress from 1969. My dress has no label except a union label on the detachable train. Is there anyway to verify that my dress is an Emma Domb? I bought it at a department store in Santa Barbara (the Broadway, I believe) for $90 which was a sum at that time. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00142977781002335488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316866123320766755.post-22024662080509515372018-07-28T07:23:46.477-07:002018-07-28T07:23:46.477-07:00Hi Lisa, I was researching Emma Domb when I saw yo...Hi Lisa, I was researching Emma Domb when I saw your blog.

Looks like it's definitely worth it to try to restore and I probably don't want to dress like a dead prom queen in it!Kayhttp://vintagereveries.comnoreply@blogger.com
