I love this T-Back vintage dress in a beautiful summer deep rich coral shade called Coral Reef.

It is out of a heavier than cotton Jaquard fabric which is in a beautiful color. The fabric is a heavier blend of linen and cotton and is lovely. I do not see this type of fabric in modern days clothes unfortunately. Most manufacturers use cotton fabric because it is cheap and easy to get. A simple explanation of what jaquard design is is the following: " a fabric of intricate variegated weave or pattern" in which the design is woven into the fabric rather than printed which makes for a longer lasting print that does not fade and is richer in color than fabric which are not woven. My thanks for this information from the Merriam-Webster Dictionary Thesaurus.

This is an expensive fabric and similar to the type that are in vintage A.J. Bari dresses from the 1970s. It is not the lightweight cotton that is in most dresses sold at stores nowadays which feels cheap and flimsy once you are familiar to expensive fabrics. There is a very subtle floral print in the background.

Four bright gold textured metal buttons in front on the set-in cummerbund waistline. The dress is completely lined with matching coral silky lining except for the back of the cummerbund. Very full skirt.
Two pocket in skirt in side seam. I love the T-back on this dress and it is perfect for summer!

Watch all the heads turn when you walk in wearing this knockout vintage halter party dress in Coral Reef

By: Branka Klarige
Size: 6 but this is vintage sizing so go by the measurements instead of the Size tag
Approximate Measurements – This means the measurements of the item listed – not of your own figure. You must be a few inches smaller than the measurements shown.
Bust: 32 - 33
Waist: 30 with no stretch but the buttons could be moved over to add more inches to waist as there is some room there so the buttons could be moved.
Length: Measured from top back below the collar to end of skirt 47
Fabric: 50% Linen and 50% cotton
Care: Dry clean
Condition: Very good with some imperfections. There is a large dark spot opn the righthand shoulder area (1" x 2"). (4th from the end photo) I do not know if it would come out or not but I tried pinning the collar down in that area and it does hide the spot with only the tiniest tip of it showing. (3rd from the last photo) I would suggest tacking it down rather than pinning it but I will leave that up to the new owner to decide what they want to do. A couple of the buttons are pinned to the dress inside and sewing them on is an easy fix. The buttonholes thread binding around them is gone and that is an easy fix for either the new owner or the cleaner. (next to last photo)

The dress would normally be price at $250 but I have made lowered the price because of the imperfections.

Care Instructions

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.

Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.

Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.

The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.

Plush and Warm
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Queen
This comforter is so warm that you can sleep as you come! In a full PJ set this blanket makes me sweat so I have learned that less is more. It is sooooo plush, and soft that it will have you not wanting to come out of bed. The size is perfect for a couple or someone who wants to feel nice and cozy like a bug in a rug. The quality of blanket is amazing as it is thick, fluffs up immediately out the package, has no smell and does not have a wrinkly appearance. I bought this to replace a feather down blanket that had my bedroom feeling like a chicken coop and it definitely does not disappoint. If you want to save on your heating bill, give a warm gift or have a plush night of sleep then this comforter is for you.

Wife and cat approved!!!
Color: Grey, Size: Queen, Color: Grey, Size: Queen
The BEDELITE Fluffy Queen Comforter has been a great addition to our bedroom. It has a soft, plush feel right out of the bag and fluffs up nicely once laid out. It strikes a nice balance of being lightweight while still keeping us warm and cozy, which is perfect for year-round use. My wife immediately noticed how soft it felt, and it really does make the bed feel more inviting at the end of the day. What surprised me most is how much everyone in the house seems to love it—our cats practically live on the bed now because of how comfortable it is. The fabric feels gentle against the skin, and it doesn’t have that scratchy or noisy texture some budget comforters do. Overall, it’s a cozy, well-made option that delivers good warmth and comfort at a reasonable price.

Soft, Warm & Cozy
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Queen
The BEDELITE Fluffy Queen Comforter Set is absolutely wonderful. I purchased it for my 75-year-old mom during her visit to Oregon, where the weather can be quite cool, and it was the perfect choice. The sherpa material is unbelievably soft and cozy without being too heavy. It kept her warm and comfortable, especially in the evenings, and she commented multiple times on how soft and luxurious it felt. The quality is excellent, and it looks great on the bed as well. If you’re looking for a warm, plush comforter that’s gentle, cozy, and ideal for cooler climates or older guests, this set is a fantastic purchase. We’re very happy with it and would definitely buy it again.

Review of bedlite fluffy comforter
Color: Grey, Size: Twin
The bed light fluffy twin comforter was terrific and well-made. I would say, however, as a person who runs cold that I needed to put an extra blanket on top of it. The comforter is warm for the spring and fall, but not for the winter. The other thing to mention is, it is a light comforter, and not a thick comforter for the winter. Overall, I would recommend the comforter is worth the value of the money you paid for it.

big, comfy, and warm!
Color: Black, Size: Queen
very soft and comfortable, perfect for cold winter nights! it's just had to wash at home since it's so thick and big. if you have a big washer and dryer, i'd recommend it, but if not be prepared to go to the laundry mat every time you want to wash your bedding.
