orange blue dress Dramatic 1970s Ronald Amey Orange Blue & Coral Print Silk Couture Dres – Shrimpton CoutureIn the 1960s if you wanted to wear something with a dramatic flare then you chose the work of Ronald Amey. He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short lived. From 1959 1969 he designed under the label Burke Amey. Joseph Burke, his partner, took care of the business side of things. In 1970s he bought out Burke and renamed the company Ronald Amey

In the 1960s if you wanted to wear something with a dramatic flare then you chose the work of Ronald Amey. He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short-lived. From 1959-1969 he designed under the label Burke-Amey. Joseph Burke, his partner, took care of the business side of things. In 1970s he bought out Burke and renamed the company Ronald Amey where he continued to produce his dramatic clothing until the label shuttered in 1976. His clothing was of very high quality and he incorporated many couture level details into their construction. All of his pieces were sewn in-house at his New York atelier

One of his signatures was to combine bold colors, prints and fabrics in interesting, unusual ways and this dress is a splendid example of that. The colors are bold and the mix is dramatic. The bodice and sleeves are sheer orange printed silk chiffon that is layered over the same printed coral ribbon silk that you see used for the skirt. This gives the top a very couture and quirky feel. The neckline is cut wide across the collarbones and it is anchored by a wide band of blue silk satin that is top-stitched in gold thread. This curves around the neckline and then down the front on either side of the notched front. The panel continues past the seamed waist and runs down the center of the skirt where it ends with a large diamond of the same fabric in brown. More of the blue runs around the hem and then is used again for the cuffs on each sleeve. The combination of the orange, coral and blue is spectacular . The heavy dose of all those prints, colors and patterns should not work but it does. The perfect finish is the wide fabric belt made of the same blue as the banding and this wraps around the waist where you can cinch it in and leave it simple as I did or tie it in a far more elaborate way. The exterior is in excellent condition with a note about the lining to review below.

Fully lined in a bright peach silk throughout except for the sleeves. Entirely hand finished. It closes with a front zipper and there are zippers on each cuff. The zippers stick a bit when you open and close them. There is shattering of the silk around each arm on the interior. The exterior fabrics are sound and show no wear at all. The exterior of the dress appears to have been worn very little. The dress is even better in person.

Smooth Operation
Color: Brushed Aluminum, Style: No Light Kit
This Fan has exceptional airflow and operates smoothly. I use the included remote control. It took a little white to install and it’s fairly heavy, but besides that, it’s great.

Great for kids!
Color: White
I bought this stylus for the kids to use with their iPads, and it definitely gets the job done. It connects easily, charges fast, and works smoothly for drawing, writing, and playing around on apps. The palm rejection is a big plus—it makes it a lot easier for them to use without messing up what they’re doing. It’s also pretty responsive, which I wasn’t necessarily expecting at this price. Overall, it served its purpose well. If you’re looking for something affordable and functional for kids (or even light everyday use), this is a solid option.

Rock-Solid Apple Pencil Replacement for iPad Mini
Color: White
Despite the box arriving pretty beat up inside the Amazon packaging, the pen itself was in perfect condition and it’s been outstanding. It works flawlessly with my iPad Mini (Gen 7, A17). The physical on/off button is a standout feature for me; the tactile click is far more satisfying and reliable than the touch-sensitive controls found on other pens. I primarily use this stylus while flying, taking notes in the air, and it performs exactly how I need it to. The magnetic attachment is especially impressive because it’s strong enough to add real security inside my iPad case. Even in rough air, I don’t have to worry about it getting knocked loose. I previously used a pencil from another brand that worked fine overall, but the weak (or nonexistent) magnetic hold was a dealbreaker. This one solves that problem completely and when it came time to buying a new pencil because I lost the old one, this was my choice. If you’re looking for a dependable, well-built Apple Pencil replacement with a solid magnetic connection and a satisfying physical control, this is an easy recommendation. You also CANNOT go wrong with the price!

Perfect stylus for my iPad.
Color: White
This stylus works great! It was easy to set up, and is perfect for my needs. The pen is the perfect weight and seems to be made of good material. I anticipate it will last a long time. The pen came charged and I still haven’t charged it. If you like using a stylus on an iPad, this one feels just like using a pencil. I like to write, so this has been a great choice.

Great product!
Color: White
I have now purchased two of these (I lost the first one) and they are absolutely a worthwhile purchase. Nicely packaged, easy set up, works great! Battery life is great and the pencil charged fairly quickly as well. Size of the pencil is wonderful, easy to hold and grip. Quality is great as well. 5 stars from me, hopefully I don’t lose this one! 🤣
