Wonderful black silk taffeta halter gown brings visions of days when women swept into rooms. Made of a good weight black silk taffeta the gown makes that delicious rustling sound at the slightest movement. The skirt is quite full - there are yards and yards of fabric in it. You could if you wish, increase the appearance of volume and where a petticoat or crinoline under it. The bodice is sleek and fitted with a pretty flat pleat detail running across the bust. It has light boning through the front and the side zipper means the back is left unbroken. The simple halter strap slips over the neck or you can tuck it and wear it strapless! Fantastic early piece in easy to style basic black!
Bust: 18" when measured flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: 14" when measured flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Skirt: 45" from waist seam to bottom hem.
The dress is unlined and closes with a side painted zipper and the halter slips over the head and around the neck. There are some small flaws and it is priced accordingly. It was let out slightly at each side of the bust and at the back and there are fainted rows where the original stitches were on all vertical seams. There is scuffing and faint fading here and there along the hem and some small pinholes. These are all minor and expected in a piece this age. It is stable and wearable.
Modern Sizing equivalent: SML (4-6)

Excellent 8 Cube Storage Organizer
Size: 8 Cube Shelf
This is a wonderful cube storage organizer and I have nothing but good things to say about them (I got 3). They arrived in special packing that protected every piece of the shipment. Nothing was damaged or missing. However, I did receive a few extra hardware pieces that had no use that I could see. The assembly was easy and the quality/grain of the wood was so nice that I decided not to paint it. Also, I was very pleased with the real wooden back panels - no cardboard on this unit. Every screw hole and back-panel slots lined up perfectly with its counterpart and fit together without any adjustments. As a bonus, each unit came with 4 nice, sturdy, fabric storage bins. The only "con" I have about the unit was that there was no indication in the Amazon description that these units came from China. I did not know until the boxes arrived and I could see the country of origin. My 3 units are placed side-by-side and make a lovely bookcase/room divider.

My closet is so organized!
Size: 8 Cube Shelf
Nice, sturdy. Extremely easy to assemble. I'm redoing my closet so I bought an 8 cube unit. I liked it so much that I then purchased another 8-cube and a 6 cube. They even supply a nifty little tool which works like an allen wrench but is so much easier on my hands. Note: For my laundry room, I had to buy from another company because I wanted white and a different size. That purchase really made me appreciate the quality, price and ease of assembly that the EXPERLAM units gave me.

Perfect for the space
Size: 8 Cube Shelf
I am so pleased with this organizer. My daughter needed more storage for her closet, and I came across this storage organizer. I like how sturdy it is, and it was quick to assemble. It is the perfect size for her closet. And it was not expensive at all. She even liked that it came in plain wood and with drawers to organize her belongings and spaces for bigger items in her closet that can be placed on the shelf cubbies. I will definitely recommend it!

Strong smelling bins
Size: 8 Cube Shelf, Size: 8 Cube Shelf
Amazing shelf and love that it’s solid wood, but the fabric bins smell so strongly. Even through the wood is not highly treated, I am wondering if the bin material is full of formaldehyde. I cannot find any information on materials of bins. I will be replacing them with natural rattan or woven grass.

Good Quality & Value - baskets included!
Size: 4 Cube Shelf, Size: 4 Cube Shelf
I bought this shelf as opposed to others because it was the best value considering it comes with baskets. Perfect shelf for a small space where I needed extra baby storage. I like the natural look but you could easily paint or stain it since it’s unfinished. Super quick to assemble and good quality pieces.
