This is a rather sophisticated 50s dress made of black taffeta with decorative black satin bow and trim.  The dress is made with a bateau or “boat” neckline, raglan style 3/4 length sleeves and has a dropped waist defined by a black satin band with side bow.  It is constructed with an accented waistline and a full skirt.  The side of the skirt, below the bow, is made with the a box pleat with satin lined overflaps.  The dress closes at the back with a Lightning metal zipper and is lined beneath the bodice with black acetate.  The skirt is lined in black pellon and has a tulle support slip.  The dress, because of the full skirt, might look good with a crinoline underneath it in order to create a 50s fashion effect, although, due to the dropped waist, looks perfect as is.

Label: No label on this 50s dress, probably couturier made.  This is very well made - the use of Lightning zipper indicates that it was most likely a Canadian couturier.

Material: Lightweight knit wool over acetate and pellon.  Pellon is a non-woven paper based synthetic interfacing that was used in the 1950s to stiffen and support dress fabrics.  If you want to dry clean the dress, you may have to remove it and then replace it as dry cleaning can disintegrate it.  

Sizing: No size is indicated, but this should fit a medium size - please rely on the following measurements for fit:

Bust: 36” around, taken under the arms

Natural waistline:  25”-26” around

Hips:  35”-36”

Overall length: 43"

Condition: It is in very good condition with no pronounced wear, tear, stains or odor.  This dress looks like it saw little use and was well stored over the years.

This is a wonderful 1950s era party dress - beautifully made with quality fabric in a sophisticated 50s style...sure to noticed!

One of the best deals available!
Color: White, Size: 2 Pack
Extremely sturdy, good looking and easy to install. I have a couple of dozen feet of assorted lengths in the kitchen, bedroom, living room and foyer. Holding all sorts of antique clocks, audio equipment and cooking stuff from my flours and assorted cornmeals to cases of powdered “lemonade”.

Mounting system doesn’t align on one of three shelves.
Color: Walnut, Size: 3 Pack
Nice shelves. Install was super easy except on one of the three shelves. The main mounting shelf holes were off so the shelf will not slip onto horizontal mounting poles unless I modify the shelf. So a 20 minute job becomes a two hour job. The mounting system does appear very sturdy just not aligned.

Great center piece for my gaming room
Size: 7.9"D x 39.4"W x 34.3"H, Color: White, Size: 7.9"D x 39.4"W x 34.3"H, Color: White
It’s quite large, but you can display a lot of your cool collectibles on it. It arrives in a nicely packaged box with instructions, although I found the instructions to be quite basic. Most people should be able to figure it out. Instead of following the instructions, I recommend forming the honeycomb structure on one side and then attaching it to your wall. Drill holes through the holes in the honeycomb, ensuring everything is level. Once the entire unit is assembled, one person can hang it on the wall. However, I suggest having a building partner. I attempted it alone and was straining my core while reaching on a ladder, which was probably not the wisest idea. The build quality appears to be very good, and I believe it will last for many years. The LED light colors are nice, though not as good as those on a razor, but they’re not bad for a third-party product. There are plenty of screws to install, with a couple of extra. Just for reference my computer screen in the g9 57 inch that’s how big this shelf unit is. Holds up to 120 lbs

Will probably buy another one!

Looks great, LED strip is a nice touch. The unit is relatively lightweight while still being quite sturdy. There were a lot of parts and it took some time to assemble, but the instructions were very clear - just step-by-step drawings but everything was labeled clearly. I was pleasantly surprised that the hardware that is used to put it together is better than you’ll often find with low-cost shelving and furniture too, which gives you confidence while assembling. Just don’t over-tighten anything to avoid cracking or stripping the parts.
