An important and truly breathtaking one-of-a-kind metallic gold lamè trained couture dress custom-made for icon Yma Sumac. This ultra rare masterpiece dates back to the mid 1950's. Yma Sumac (1922–2008) was a noted Peruvian soprano and the original Queen of Exotica. Her international fame began in the early 1950's and she became the most famous proponent of exotica music. She is remembered best for her extraordinary vocal range, which was well over four and a half octaves. She was also quite the fashionista, and in 2010 'V' fashion magazine voted her one of the top 5 World Muses! 

Crafted from opulent metallic gold lamé, the dress features a seductive sculpted low-plunge bustier bodice with inner boning construction and a padded bust for a flawless, figure-enhancing fit. The garment's most striking feature is the unique, fluid train, which offers endless styling possibilities. Whether draped around the neck as a dramatic scarf or left flowing in a cascade of liquid gold to the floor, the train enhances it's unique 'Old Hollywood' allure. The front slit, combined with the gown’s sleek, hourglass fitted silhouette, offers a quintessential femme fatale vibe—effortlessly glamorous and impossible to ignore. As Damon, Yma Sumac's personal assistant, told me, "Yma loved elegance mixed with a touch of exotic. I was fascinated to see how much effort was put into each piece and what was added inside for the perfect physique". A piece like this is more than just a dress—it's a true work of art and a rare treasure that encapsulates Yma Sumac's extraordinary life both on and off the stage. This one-of-a-kind creation is a testament to her timeless elegance and the lasting impact she made on the worlds of both music and fashion. An iconic slice of 'Old Hollywood' glamour that would be an epic red carpet look.

Perfect for my dog!

Such a cute toy! I got this for my dog’s birthday and used it in her birthday photos. It looked adorable. The toy is soft, well made, and the squeaker kept her interested. Perfect size and super photogenic too. Definitely happy with this purchase!

Squeak, Snuggle, and Smile—Playtime Perfection!
Color: Brown Dog
From the first moment I handed my pup this Squeaky Plush Dog Chew Toy, he was hooked on its charming brown-dog design and delightful squeak. The soft cotton filling and velvety exterior offer a comforting texture that encourages gentle chewing and cozy cuddles, while the built-in squeaker keeps play sessions interactive and exciting. Sized just right for small to medium breeds and made from non-toxic, pet-safe materials, it’s the perfect companion for dogs who love a little soft-toy fun without any messy stuffing spills. I was especially impressed by the durable construction: reinforced double-stitched seams and high-quality plush fabric stand up to moderate chewing, and cleanup is a breeze—just toss it in the washing machine and it looks as good as new. At such an affordable price, this toy delivers hours of entertainment, comfort, and quiet satisfaction for both pet and owner. For anyone with a non-aggressive chewer seeking a safe, long-lasting, and utterly adorable plaything, this Squeaky Plush Dog Chew Toy is an unbeatable value.

Misleading product description, Not very Durable
Color: White&Grey&Brown, Color: White&Grey&Brown
The descriptions for this toy are very misleading. Upfront it says “Durable materials withstand rigorous play” Then buried further down it says “Best For Gentle Dogs”. Needless to say they didn’t last very long but they are cute. The design is poor, the rope only goes to the middle of the toy not all the way through.
