As Seen on Giovanna Battaglia!

Incredible Christian Dior gown in a beautiful silk chiffon that has been done in a red and white striping. To me this is the perfect summer gown - it has a light and airy feel to it, the front plunge feels sexy but not overtly so and the color is just perfect. The skirt has miles and miles of fabric in it and the top layer is set over two inner layers of white silk chiffon that adds to that beautiful feel of fullness and lightness. The top is edged in a wide ruffle of fabric whose stripes are smaller and set closer together then those on the skirt and bodice. It plunges quite deep at the front and the back scoops softly. This gown is so well made that if you wished to wear the plunge at the back you could get away with it! You can also wear the shoulders lower. An amazing documented find from the 1979 collection. Excellent, appears unworn condition.

The last photo shows two versions from the same 1979 collection. The caption on this photograph reads  "Boutique collection, 1979 ‘In the Wind’, two organza evening dresses with green, white and red stripes in the ‘Boutique’ Collection for the spring and summer, from Christian Dior London, photo from the Getty Archive"

Fully lined in a white silk crepe through the bodice and two layers of silk chiffon through the skirt. Closes with a side painted metal zipper. The waist band has a stiffening fabric inside it. Hand finishes.

Bust:17 " flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 13.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Bodice: 15" from top of bodice to top waist seam
Skirt: 42" from waist to hem

Modern Sizing Equivalent: SML-MED

Slim but capable
Color: Steven Medium Brown, Size: One Size
I've had my old wallet for over two decades, it's warren and the edges are starting to fall apart and I thought I'd be proactive and get a new one before it was completely useless. With all the new slim minimalist designs I was intregeed. This is what I found out, at least for my needs. These new elastic card clips, are nice size wise, are not what the are advertised to be. They are small in your pocket but you need another place for the items you don't use everyday. So as far as being slim and efficient they are misleading. Unless you plan ahead you won't have what you need, say health insurance cards oops forgot them cause I don't use them everyday. Ones with cash clips or elastic bands aren't what they are cracked up to be either. To pull out a bill you need to take all the bills out unfold then and then refold the and squeeze the back in the clip, not covenant. Next I tried a bi-fold card holder with a money clip. This solved the having everything I needed even if I didn't use it everyday but still had the cash usability issue which required less folding but still needed to pull all the bills out to use. Plus it wasn't any dinner or smaller then my old wallet. Then I found this wallet, it was pretty much the same as my old one minus one card slot due to the visible ID slot. So in the end this was the perfect wallet for me. Not sure what my old wallet was as the leather is very well worn but I'm guessing it is the same brand. One other thing this wallet is not scan protected which the other slim wallets were. But you can buy cheap sleeves to place on either side to protect against this if your concerned. One benefit of not having this feature is the ability to keep your key card in your wallet and have it work. Again slim but needing multiple place for your items is not efficient, was not a fan of the carabineer I had to also carry while using the slim wallets.

Great wallet
Color: Steven Medium Brown, Size: One Size
Great and very durable wallet. They are slim, fit well in a pocket, and are thin, unless you have lots of CC and money in it.

Slim and elegant, beautiful leather
Color: Derrick Brown, Size: One Size
I bought this wallet for my son for his 36th birthday. I love that it is a true Fossil wallet and all that goes with anything that is a Fossil product. Style, masculine elegance, beautiful soft grain leather, and the Fossil logo embedded on the front, right bottom of the billfold. It came in different colors but I chose the soft brown one. This is also very sleek, has plenty of compartments for ID, cash, credit and business cards, and it is RFID blocked. I didn't realize when I purchased this that it is to be worn in the front pocket of the pant. It is a fashion made for men who don't appreciate a wallet in the back. It can be very uncomfortable and someone can easily lift the wallet out of the back pocket...So Fossil is producing this item to wear in the front for easy access and protection. It is small but no less accommodating. I showed it to one of my other son's and he wished I'd get one for him, and he is very fashion-forward, but practical. So I'm very pleased with my purchase although I haven't heard from the birthday boy yet! Also it came in the usual Fossil tin box that all their products are housed in-original with a bit of funk, perfect for any aged man.

Perfect G Shock for my use
Perfect G Shock King Red I have read many reviews on this Robust G shock. Im a night time duty officer. The red face and big black resin is great. The reddish pink light is actually low key. When im out in the sun I have no issue in looking at the time date etc. Besides everything else about the king red. Yes the stands out and obvious. Im more than satisfied.
