Thanks for the links. They look similar, but slightly different.

The zipper on this dress looks to be the same: https://forums.vintagefashionguild.org/threads/age-of-this-gown.57631/#post-575666. They suggested late 30s to late 40s for that dress, so 40s could well be correct.

Found an Insta page on vintage zippers and videos on them. Some rare designs are very cool.
