An incredibly rare and absolutely gorgeous Edward Molyneux black leaf-motif lace bias-cut gown dating back to the mid 1930's. This breathtaking museum worth black dress was a custom commission by Eleanor Jerusha Lawler Pillsbury. After a period working for the British fashion designer Lucile, Molyneux opened his fashion house in Paris and became known for his "never too rich or too thin" idle slim "refined at the edge of outrageous" look, frowning on superfluous decoration. He firmly believed in simplicity; subtle in color and perfect in cut. Molyneux dressed the likes of Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Margaret Leighton, and Vivien Leigh. His followers included Christian Dior and Pierre Balmain.
This exceptional beauty is fashioned in the highest quality black leaf-motif lace patterned lace with her original under slip still attached. I love the dramatic winged cut sleeve design which is really ahead of it's time. sleeve that flows into a large-scale side bow. The full-length trained skirting has complex couture pattern work insanely hard to do on bias-cut fabric. Eleanor Jerusha Lawler Pillsbury was also six-feet tall so this stunning dress is also very long. Extravagant garments from the 1930's remain a perennial favorite, perhaps because no other period combined such opulence with such effortless elegance. A rare slice of fashion history that will instantly become a favorite in your collection.

Measurements (varies due to bias-cut)
Bust: 31-33 inches
Waist: 24-26 inches
Hips: up to 35 inches
Total Length: 63 inches (not including train)

This mid 1930's Molyneux haute couture gown is in excellent unaltered condition with no stains or fade. Slips on over the head with hand-set side metal closures. Hand-stitching throughout. Only signs of age are some breaks to the leaf motif lace throughout and age wear to the original label.

Excellent Sound Deadening Material!
Style: 10 SqFt, Style: 10 SqFt
I installed Kilmat Sound Deadening in my truck, and I’m extremely impressed with the results. The material is thick, pliable, and easy to cut to fit doors, floor panels. It sticks very well to metal surfaces and doesn’t peel, even after heating it slightly to make it more flexible. After installation, I immediately noticed a reduction in road noise and vibrations. Worth the money!!

A Must Have For Car Restorations!
Style: 80 mil 36 sqft, Style: 80 mil 36 sqft
I have been installing this matting in my 74 Datsun 260Z restore and very pleased with the ease of application and overall quality. My car has bedliner coating inside and this stuff sticks extremely well and is easy to trim and shape as well. I have just started installing it and using the rollers to work it in place but I can already tell a difference with just the little bit I have added....has reduced the resonance in the metal already. It's not a fast process but know it will be very rewarding once complete.

Gama Sonic Solar Lights: Built to Last and Guaranteed
Number of Items: 2
These lights are nice and bright and stay on all night. I have other Gama Sonic solar lights also. One of them, which I didn't buy from Amazon, had a problem so I contacted Gama Sonic directly because they have a 2-year warranty. They responded immediately and I got it fixed and now I'm happy with it. I will keep buying their solar lights because they make good quality solar lights and have a 2-year warranty.

Very strong construction--no plastic
Number of Items: 2
Expensive, but appears to be very well made. The lights are made of aluminum, so the support is sturdier than the usual plastic. The poles are in two parts, so you have a choice of heights the light is above the surface. Battery replacements are expensive, but you should get two years or more from a battery. You have a choice of a quite bright white light or a less bright yellow light.
