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.*

Sturdy and good price
Size: 10 Inch, Unit Count: 44
These plates a wide and sturdy. We use them everyday at home to minimize dirty dishes which makes cleaning really easy. We’ve had even stew on them which can be very soupy and they don’t leak and they don’t get soggy. It’s also a good price point for the amount of plates it comes with. Good for everyday use or for hosting as well

Paper plates are something you really need to shop around and these from Amazon are well made and priced to sell. They hold up well when we are looking to have a quick bite for lunch or a midday snack.

Strong, Reliable Plates for Everyday Use
Style: 10 Inch, Size: 100 Count
These Dixie Ultra paper plates are a great upgrade from regular disposable plates. They’re strong and sturdy, so they don’t bend or leak even with heavier or saucy foods. Perfect for everyday meals, cookouts, or quick cleanups when you don’t feel like doing dishes. The 10-inch size is just right for full meals, and the pack lasts a good while. I’ve used them for hot foods without any issues—they hold up really well. Overall, dependable quality and worth paying a little extra compared to cheaper, flimsy options.
