From 1939, to be exact, an exquisite evening gown in jet-black velvet with matching jacket fit for a big-screen starlet.

Dress has slim straps, attached sash, and flowing skirt. Bodice features tiny, star-shaped sequins stitched into a jaunty bow, and all the way around. We show the dress sleek and slim, with nothing beneath, but the hem sweep could easily accommodate a large crinoline. Lined at bodice. Dress closes at side with metal zipper. Sash closes at back with snaps and hook&eye at the permanent bow. Straps snap at front inner bodice, and thus are easily adjusted for a custom fit.

Jacket is full-on Hollywood glamour with grand, puffed, upper sleeves (but only small sleeve-head shoulder pads) slimming to elongated points that close with a row of covered buttons. Lots of strategic seaming for a flattering fit. Fully lined. Feels heavenly. 

Made at a boutique in West Virginia, U.S.A. Another gem from the Sherman estate. 

Labels: Mildred's
We found advertisements for Mildred's Dress Shop in Charleston, W.Va., from 1931. It was clearly a high-end boutique, as their least-expensive offerings, even deeply discounted, were more than $150 in today's money. This particular ensemble was purchased in 1939.

Fiber/Care: no tags, velvet feels like silk though may possibly be a cotton and/or rayon blend, dry-clean only

Condition: presents beautifully, but there are some glitches to note.

The dress's hem is chewed up and thinning along the bottom front. we'll let you have it hemmed to your desire length. any fabric salvaged in the process can be used for repairs and patches, as you see fit. with a black slip and the hem finished properly, the thin areas and tiny hole at left back hip would be invisible. but we recommend repairs to prolong the life of the dress. there's a spot of discoloration at the front sequins, as shown. I doubt it's permanent, but our dry-cleaner didn't manage to (or perhaps didn't try) to remove it.

The jacket has the one uncovered button, but otherwise is in excellent shape. we've retacked its lining along the neckline. no other flaws.

*We've had this gown & jacket set professionally dry-cleaned and it's ready to wear.*

Bad quality. Stopped working within a month.
Color: Blue
This watch stopped working the day after Amazon accepts returns. I had only worn it twice. I had another similar watch which worked fine. I don't see any warranties from the manufacturer for this item. So a waste of money. Also for the 30 day return - I received this on January 11, it is February 11 - I should be able to return for refund.

Must wind the time adjustment knob in for it to work!
Its a gorgeous watch and I love the clasp design and band material. It works if you: 1. wind the time adjustment knob with the knob IN/towards the watch 2. pull out the time adjustment knob and wind the side button to change the time or 3. shake it hard- it starts and stays moving easily after that if you are walking/swinging your hand around. I dont know how long each wind/twist lasts but winding it (knob in) will keep it moving even if its just sitting. Options 2 or 3 only keep it moving temporarily. The band and clasp are really smooth and comfortable. The watch itself isnt too thick and the band is extremely easy to adjust to a custom fit (screwdriver and instructions included for adjusting the clasp location). Its really comfortable for an all day wear, is subtle for everyday wear but classy when looked at up close. For under $35 this is a gorgeous, simple watch and significantly cheaper than most of the others I've looked at. Havent tested under water yet though
