This is a really phenomenal little cocktail dress whose photos here really do not fully convey the beauty of the fabric or the richness and pure genius of that cut and the way the entire thing is constructed. Sarmi was known for evening wear and dramatic pieces that were well made with dramatic details and had a true decadent feel to them & this is a wonderful example of his work. The body of the dress is made of a black silk satin with a defined waist accented by the most beautiful bow and flower. A ribbon wraps around and hooks under the front flower for a pretty touch. The skirt flares out gently from that waist and widens slightly as it falls gracefully past the knee and is finished with a ruffled hem. The neckline is kept perfectly simple with no collar and a notched neckline so the lines are kept smooth and perfect.  The final touch is the long sleeves whose riffled cuffs perfectly tie it all together. Most likely a one of a kind custom piece as were most of his pieces. Excellent condition

Fully interlined with a black silk organza though the skirt and fine black silk through the bodice. It closes with a hand set, back painted metal zipper. Hand finishes throughout.

Light Weight but Not Hot
Color: Dark Grey, Size: King
Ok... I absolutely love this comforter. In fact, I use it on three different beds. The colors are perfect. The material is soft. It's extremely light weight, but it keeps you warm in the winter and does not overheat you in the summer. I have this in King and Queen, and the sizing has been good for both. I have thrown it in my washing machine multiple times, and it holds up well. Great quality, low price.

Navy is pretty, but doesn’t feel like a great quality set.
Color: Navy Blue, Size: King
I purchased the Navy. The color is great and the pleated pattern is a nice touch. My daughter has the white and it’s very soft. The navy is not, though. So that was disappointing. It’s also not breathable. It’s not thick, but just not breathable. I actually get pretty warm at night with this one when I don’t normally with any other blankets. It also seems on the small side. We have a king and always buy king, this just feels a little smaller. Doesn’t feel high quality. I would not buy again.

Very Elegant!!
Color: Bright White, Size: Full/Queen
Beautiful comforter set! its super fluffy light weight while still cozy, gives a clean expensive look. It arrives wrinkled up from being packaged, i never steamed mine but you could do that if you want a crisp look. I love the quality and looks more expensive then it was, highly recommend!

Excellent buy!
Color: Blush, Size: Twin/Twin XL
I LOVE this set! It is perfect all year long! I fold it down in the summer to just cover my feet. In the Fall it’s perfect weight alone and in the colder months I use a blanket underneath! Everyone says it’s Beautiful! The color stays true wash after wash! It retains its shape well also! The pillow case is exactly like the cover! It also retains color & shape! It’s soft and you can just curl up in it! The quality is just as good as some other very expensive brands! This is great value for the money!
