The clothing styles, particularly the ankle-length skirts with dropped waists and loose bodices, strongly point to the late 1910s or very early 1920s. The hairstyles (short/pinned up with waves) and long pendant necklaces corroborate this era. Given Esther Burd's marriage in 1920 and her age (born ~1900), a date around 1918-1920 fits perfectly with her appearing as a young woman of about 18-20.
