Can this be dated? (Belgium)

[Zefiro]

Maybe there isn't much to be said about this picture, but are there clues to date this to a certain period of time (or even decade)?
It's a photo of a young girl on a postcard, no further information on the back side. The edge is jagged.
I guess she's 12 years old as she's clearly wearing her confirmation dress.
I know that you dating specialists here know everything about English fashion, and this is Flemish (Belgian), but you never know...

My mother in law had just such a veil when married and the cloche headwear. it was the fashion in 1929.Also the dress length was in fashion then.
Hope this narrows it down a bit for you .

A similar date to Viktoria - say 1930 +/- 2

A relative wore something very similar.

The late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother wore a similar veil when she married Prince Albert later King George the  V1 in 1923.

I've just noticed that this is a confirmation rather than a wedding dress so our estimates may not be accurate.

Will see if any of my books give clearer info.

Nearest that I can find so far is dated 1930s but has a shorter skirt length.

Thanks for all the helpfull replies. They confirm my initial feeling that this photo dates from 1920 to 1935.

It keeps the mystery alive. The only potential candidates I have are born in the period 1900 - 1912, so no match I guess.
I'm going to have to look at some other family pictures to search for resemblances.

I would say this was a late 1920s early 1930s image, it is a lovely one too. The Page Boy hairstyle is worn by my MIL at around the same age and she was born in 1922. She too isn't smiling in the photo, I think that was the norm at the time.

Thank you for reply. If I ever find out who she was, I'll be able to post the exact date of this photo.
