This gown is absolutely incredible and very beautiful. It really is one of the most phenomenal dresses I have ever had and the workmanship is exquisite. It is constructed from yards and yards of bias cut black silk organza. Down the front of the dress is a trail of silk and velvet pink roses that are set along padded velvet stalks. The leaves along the vines are hand painted onto the silk in a gold paint and then each is detailed with a layer of gold sequins. These trail up to one side where they are met by three bands of black velvet that curve up and over the shoulders. More velvet bands the waist and the combination of textures and colors of the black is fantastic. The cut is pure old glamorous Hollywood. A fitted bodice is cut to follow every curve. It cinches in at the waist and this tops expansive, full skirts made from yards and yards of bias cut silk organza topping an inner more opaque black skirt. Everything about this gown is beautiful. The bodice is lightly boned and everything is done by hand. From the estate of a very wealthy woman this is a testament to gowns made in this time period. Presents as excellent condition but does have some small issues to mote below.

Fully lined in a black silky rayon. There is boning in the bodice. It closes with a side painted metal zipper on the interior layer and with snaps over this on the exterior layer. Hand work throughout. I see an old repair near the hem on the back top layer of the skirt. There is some repairs to the pleat work on the silk and some shattering along the very edge of the top of the bodice. I also see some slight shattering to the silk along the top layer where it closes at the side. Priced far lower then otherwise for this exquisite gown.

Waist: 11" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Bodice: 17.5" from top of shoulder strap to waist

Shirts great, shorts are see through
Color: White, Size: Large
So my husband loved the shirt. It looked great on. However, the shorts were of a weirdly thinner material and completely see through. You could see his underwear right through the shorts.

Quality shirt
Color: Angel Falls, Size: XX-Large
Great quality fabric , style, and fit. My husband loves the fabric and colors. Ordered his normal xl but too tight across his stomach so returned and sized up , and fits much better. Even sizing up the shoulders hang nicely . He likes so much ordered two colors, both great.

Nice shirt for the price
Color: White, Size: Large
Good quality shirt, especially for the price. Drapes nicely, almost a painterly feel with the fabric. Works across the wardrobe spectrum, pairing well with slacks in a business setting or with chinos for a more casual look.
