Is this rhinestone piece a dress clip?

And I believe you are correct, a lady would place that piece right in the center of her cleavage opening of the dress.

     I want to go shopping with you! What an eye!

I would rather think that it is a fur clip with those sharp points.  https://worldeccentricitycharm.com/blogs/news/fur-clips

Yes, I would tend to agree judging how sharp they are. I would think that a lot of ladies back then would not have had furs as they were costly and seasonal. So I could see them on a wool suit or coat. 

     My grandmother used to have one attached to her purse and I wanted it!

     I initially didn't view the long points on OPs picture or I would have suggested a heavier garment but I think OP will be just fine listing this item as a " garment clip".

     Thanks for sharing your article always good to learn!

This might help you determine what kind of clips you have.

@watchmystuffgo , if you are still here, what is the mark on the back of your clip? Is it a maker's mark? Or do you know the maker of your piece?

I have a brooch with the same upturned rhinestone settings, marked just sterling. Your maker would give me somewhere to start.

Thank you.
