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)

Not for side sleepers
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Hometextile
These pillows are quite soft and flat, and offer very little support. I sleep on my side and can't use these pillows. I don't know why they're recommended for side sleepers.

A pillow made of extras soft lumps and clumps. Defective.
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Hometextile
This pillow should not even be sold. It's simple a super soft pillow with lumps of clumps of softness. Part of my head was even touching the mattress through the clumps. I ended up throwing it on the floor at 2 am and my head and neck hurt from it. I have never had a pillow of lumps before. I hope I can return this thing.

Comfortable, Hypoallergenic, and Great Value
Size: King (Pack of 2), Style: Soft, Configuration: Pillow
These pillows are a solid upgrade for everyday sleep. They’re soft but still provide enough support for both back and stomach sleeping, and the down-alternative fill is perfect if you’re sensitive to allergens. The microfiber cover feels smooth and well-made, and they fluff up nicely after decompressing. Overall, a comfortable and affordable set that gets the job done.
