This newer gown has such an elegant look! It is a combination of
black velvet and gold material.
The gown is very simple, except for the wide gold "cape-style"
collar. This off-the-shoulder "cape-style"
collar is part of the gown and encircles the entire bustline. A
vertical rhinestone bar accents the center
front of the gold collar. The remainder of the gown is black
velvet. The gown is very fitted with a center
back zipper. Black velvet shoulder straps hold the gown in place. A
high slit is located at the front side of the skirt.
The gown has a label which reads, "My Fashion U.S.A" and another
label reads, "Size 6". The gown measures
approximately: bustline=33"; waistline=23" and length (shoulder to
hemline)=50 1/2". The gown is in very good
condition and I do not believe it was ever worn.

Hibiscus Gown
This wonderful hibiscus colored gown is made by "Wtoo". The gown is
simple, yet the back gives the gown a dramatic flair. The gown is
sleeveless and has a fitted bodice with a wide boat neckline in the
front. The back is cut in a "V" and open to just above the
waistline. Again, the bodice is very fitted in the front. A
material tie is attached to each side of the gown and ties at the
bottom of the "V" opening in the back. This gathers the back
material at the midrif and creates a very flattering look. A zipper
begins at the back opening and is nicely hidden in the skirt. The
front of the skit is cut straight; whereas the back has some fullness
that gathers under the tie and cascades to the floor, creating a
"train" of sorts. The gown is displayed on a dress form which
measures: bustline=42"; waistline=31" and gown length=60". The gown
is new and was purchased from a bridal shop that went out of
business. There are a few smudges at the hemline, which should come
out with cleaning. The gown has a label which reads, "Wtoo".

This beautiful gown is so vibrant! The color is a rich magenta with
wonderful tiny glitter. The glitter is just enough to create a bit
of a sparkle as you move. The gown has a fitted bodice with a wide
ruffle around the neckline and shoulder straps. I believe the gown
should be worn off the shoulders. The ruffle continues across the
bustline to the waistline. The bodice is boned and the gown has a
center back zipper closure. The skirt is full with an attached
crinoline. The skirt has an overskirt which is rimmed with a very
wide ruffle. The ruffle begins at the waistline and crosses the
skirt diagonally in both the front and the back. The gown is in very
good condition is sure to be a show stopper! The gown does not have
a size label, but measures approximately: bustline=33";
waistline=23" and length (shoulder to hemline)=53". The inside neck
label reads, "Mike Benet Formals" "Professional Dry Clean Only" "Made
in U.S.A."

This silver and black dress is not only fun, but it's also
comfortable! The strapless dress has a stretch top done in
silver/black. A wide black ruffle rims the top of the dress. The
stretch material continues through the hips giving way to a five (5)
ruffle skirt. A large silvertone flower decorates one hip. This
dress is definately ready to party! The dress is in good condition,
but does need a small mend on the ruffle seam. The dress is made by
"Galiani" and is marked a size "Small". The dress is displayed on a
dress form measuring: bustline=36" and waistline=27". All proceeds

Pale Blue Pleated Gown
Size
11/12
This vintage gown is a striking combination of white lace and light
blue peats! The gown has a high neckline entirely done in white
lace. A complimentary patterned lace forms a "V" at the center front
of the bodice - just below the collar. A light blue satin ribbon
encircles the high collar. White lace continues over the shoulders,
through the waistline and ending with a small peplum below the
natural waistline. Blue ribbon accents the white lace and forms a
"V" in both the front and back. The lace covers a sleeveless blue
gown with a center back zipper closure. The floor length pleated
skirt attaches to the bodice just above the natural waistline. The
gown is a Size 11/12 and measures approximately: bustline=34";
waistline=26" and length (shoulder to hemline)=55". The gown is in
very good condition, but it does have some light underarm
discoloration (see Detail Views). The
gown also has a few spots. I have not had the gown cleaned (it is
Dry Clean Only), so I do not know if the discoloration will come out.
I think the discoloration could be easily hidden with lace.
