A fantastic 1950s dress for a Marilyn style vixen! This exquisite black jersey knit dress has a svelte fitted bodice with a square neckline, sun dress style straps ruched to the back, and darts to fit. The skirt is heavily ruched in a bold, oversized zig-zag motif with almost a tiered effect, lined in taffeta with a wire rim encased in the bell-like hem. This dress is a rarity from an estate with loads of Italian fashion, as the family owned an Italian imports shop from the 1940s to early 60s. It is likely Luisa Spagnoli though there are no labels.

Beautiful Shelves.
Color: Brown, Size: 3Tier48in, Color: Brown, Size: 3Tier48in
Did not come with instructions but easy to assemble once you start putting together. Very sturdy and well made, real wood shelves, not too heavy but can definitely hold a decent amount of weight. The shelves themselves are rough (could have been sanded better) but where it’s for decor and not every day use, no one would ever know. I love it.

Great Looking Shelf
Color: Brown, Size: 4Tier48in, Color: Brown, Size: 4Tier48in
I love this shelf! It took two people to hang it and you definitely want to ensure you hit a stud on at least one side or 1-2 screws if mounting between studs. It is heavy but a single person can lift it, just not maneuver easily due to its dimensions. It has a ton of room and fits mini helmets nicely in my office. Where I mounted it made it difficult to an extent to install but if you are even somewhat handy, you’ll be fine. You absolutely need a stud finder to hang this shelf. Sorry, I’m married! I would buy this shelf, or versions of it, again. Very practical and useful to display autographs, housewares or decor. Last note: do not over tighten the poles. The wood is soft and the poles are light weight. They are not traditional black pipe and weigh far less.

AWESOME Look and Quality
Color: Brown, Size: 2Tier60in
I love these shelves and have bought additional for other areas in the house. I love the look of the industrial pipes, the color of the shelves is perfect, they are sturdy and hold a lot of weight. They are somewhat difficult to assemble, but it's expected as hanging shelves are never fun to hang. I love them. If you are on the fence, just do it :)
