could anyone suggest a date for this photo

[shaw1234]

i'm curious about this photo, i dont know anything about it, it has nothing written on the back of it, it could have originated in northern ireland (although that is speculation).

If anyone could suggest a date based on the clothes and hair styles that would be a good start.

many thanks

Just a  guess,  going by the lady's hair, and her shoes, perhaps the middle 1920's.

Hi

I would say the 1920s or early 1930s myself as well. Looking at the clothes and the condition of the actual photo.

 Shawe 1234. I do hope you find out for sure about the photograph and get the right family connection.   

 Just for curiosity I went looking on he internet for information re fashions for that period.

 My previous opinion was formed from a photograph I have, that I know was taking in 1926. Of course people respond to fashion in different ways, some are on the cutting edge, some area few years behind. 

But in case anyone is interested, here  are a couple of  links re hair styles and fashion, that emerged after the first World War.
