This dreamy vintage 1980s Victor Costa pastel floral dress features the most 1980s shape, including voluminous puff sleeves, and a fitted princess-seam bodice with a dropped waist. It subtly creates an hourglass shape. These puff sleeves are really exaggerated, which I love, with tulle on the interior to help them hold their shape. There is some versatility with the neckline, as the sleeves can be worn off the shoulder, and can also be pulled up and worn on the shoulder; there is hidden elastic at the top of the sleeve that allows it to firmly stay in place no matter how you wear it. The fitted bodice gives way to a fuller skirt— there is a built-in tulle petticoat to support the fullness of the skirt. The pastel floral print feels like it was painted in watercolor, with all the best spring-y colors. The material is exceptionally soft and slinky. (Fiber contents are not listed but it feels like a cotton/silk blend.) The bodice is fully lined and it closes in the back with a zipper. Made in the USA. After studying in Paris, Victor Costa got his start in the New York fashion world making wedding gowns, and he translated that same fantasy into his subsequent foray in the ready-to-wear world. In 1973, he started his own eponymous label, Victor Costa, and cultivated a large following of customers and fans, including Whitney Houston and the cast of the television series Dynasty. Costa is best known for his decidedly "American" interpretation of European couture.

The Vintage Floral Earrings pictured are also available.

Excellent sport sock!
Size: One Size, Color: (100) White / White / Halo Gray
Molds onto foot, super soft and breathable. A lot of my ankle socks tend to slip or cut off blood circulation. This one literally is a perfect fit. No slip. After playing hours of tennis every week, my feet don't feel sore or bruised. Must buy!

Comfort!
Size: One Size, Color: (100) White / White / Halo Gray
Very comfortable! Thinner than the picture shows, but I like the fact that they are no show but still higher in the back and front to protect my heels and such.

Sizing way off
Size: One Size, Color: (100) White / White / Halo Gray
These were my favorite socks, at least the old style was. They redid them and I was okay with it. However, I don't understand how they are a one size fits most. I tried them on and they were still too big at the top. There was so much extra fabric at the toes. For reference, I wear a size 8.5 women's shoe, typically. The packaging says fits most from size 5.5 to 12. I don't understand how it fits that wide range of shoe size. Definitely returning these and I will be buying something else.
