This is a fabulous quality black silk 1940s evening dress.  This 1940s evening dress is made in a short sleeved full length sheath style.  It has a V shaped neckline and the bodice is gathered below the bust.  The midriff is finely smocked - quite amazing work that I’ve never seen previously.  There is a semi-transparent inset around the waist - it is irregularly sewn, so I’m unsure if this was added to lengthen the midriff.  You can see a shadow along the bottom of the insert but this is extra material that should have been tacked down.  Personally, I would simply cover this area with a wide belt in a similar fabric.  The dress has a peplum around the hips and there is a pleated floating panel down the front of the skirt.  This 1940s evening dress is unlined and does up at the side with a metal zipper. 

Label: None

Material: Beautiful quality silk chiffon

Sizing: No size is indicated on this 1940s evening dress, and although this should fit a tall medium to large size, please note the following measurements for fit, taking into account the style of the dress:

Shoulders:  15 1/2” across from one shoulder/sleeve seam to the other shoulder/sleeve seam

Sleeves:  9 1/2” from the shoulder/sleeve seam

Bust:  40” around, but should fit loosely

Waist:  29” around

Hips:  40” around

Length:  61” measured flat

Condition:  Aside from the aforementioned insert at the waist, it is in excellent condition with no pronounced wear, tear, stains or odour.  This 1940s evening dress looks to have seen little use and has been well cared for over the years.

This is a high quality 1940s evening dress with movie star style - classic and timeless!

Gentle serum with nice ingredients
This serum is a milky white color that is a mediun texture (not watery, and not super thick) and spreads well and easily. It absorbs pretty quickly, and doesn't leave me too sticky after, nor has it caused any irritation in over a week of daily use. I also haven't noticed any difference yet in terms of brightening or wrinkle reduction, but 1) know that this can take up to 12 weeks with astaxanthin, and 2) already use niacinamide and vitamin c and have probably already seen as much progress as I can expect in the way of evening out skintone and reducing the appearance of freckles. In English, it says there are only 6 ingredients, but given the avaialable concentrations on the box (4.3% niacinamide, 0.01% astaxanthin) that doesn't make sense. The full ingredients list is only in Korean, but after using an online image translator can see that both lists include great ingredients that have all proven to be quite effective and are gentle for sensitive skin. I also really appreciate that it has the percent niacinamide on the box because this is a staple ingredient for me and so many products have it that it's nice to be able to know how much I'm using when I combine differemt serums and moisturizers that include it so that I'm in the zone that's best for my skin and not using too much.
