Wonderful black silk taffeta halter gown brings visions of days when women swept into rooms. Made of a good weight black silk taffeta the gown makes that delicious rustling sound at the slightest movement. The skirt is quite full - there are yards and yards of fabric in it. You could if you wish, increase the appearance of volume and where a petticoat or crinoline under it. The bodice is sleek and fitted with a pretty flat pleat detail running across the bust. It has light boning through the front and the side zipper means the back is left unbroken. The simple halter strap slips over the neck or you can tuck it and wear it strapless! Fantastic early piece in easy to style basic black!
Bust: 18" when measured flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: 14" when measured flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Skirt: 45" from waist seam to bottom hem.
The dress is unlined and closes with a side painted zipper and the halter slips over the head and around the neck. There are some small flaws and it is priced accordingly. It was let out slightly at each side of the bust and at the back and there are fainted rows where the original stitches were on all vertical seams. There is scuffing and faint fading here and there along the hem and some small pinholes. These are all minor and expected in a piece this age. It is stable and wearable.
Modern Sizing equivalent: SML (4-6)

Excellent
These cleaning wipes work great for my pick up truck and they leave a new car smell. After you wipe down the surface, it leave's everything looking shiny and new. At this price it’s a very good product.

Nice products with great results
I purchased the Meguiars supreme shine protectant wipes to keep in my car for touch ups when things need a little freshening up. It is easy to use, nothing to spray and keeps my interior looking like new. Nice and black. It also protects my dashboard from the harmful sun rays. It has a pleasant smell as well.

Great product before they dry up
Great smelling product, that performs and protects and a high level. It left my car looking and smelling good with its unique scent and formula. I usually keep these inside my glove box since they’re so compact I can easily get the container and wipe when needed. The wipes retain its moisture fairly decently. I find that if I don’t use all of the wipes within a 2-3 month time frame, they will dry up and be no good. As long as you use them up before that it’s a nice buy for your vehicle.

Smells good and conditions dash well
Dust is sticking to my dash more but that’s to be expected I think. My kid also starting trying to clean the back windows with them and they streaked them up, so not for windows. Seals tight, seems like they will last a while.

Love that scent
I have been using Maguiar’s products for decades. I purchased these wipes shortly after I used one of their spray on detailing products in my garage. In that setting, the detail spray scent was addictive…almost like a tropical suntan lotion. Normally, I am not much on scents that can be overwhelming…like plug in house products or those things sit in your vehicle vents… they tend to be too strong and/or too pervasive. But in a garage, and diluted with the surrounding air…that detailing product scent was luscious, just enough, not too much. That scent prompted me to search online for “Maguiar’s wax scent” and I found some user forums discussing this topic. Lots of people think similar things and compare various other products. I learned that Maguiar’s recognized the marketing importance of scent in their products a while back, but I had never really noticed it, although it has always been my go to product line for wax and detailing products. This encouraged me to order some of these wipes for cleaning interior surfaces. I was not disappointed! The new car scent is just enough “new plastic” mixed with some sweetness of those other signature tropical notes to add a nice touch to the cleaning activity, while being just lightly persistent enough to make you notice that scent when you get into a freshly cleaned vehicle. I would not want that same scent to be too strong or persistent, and it is not. Additionally, as a cleaning product, it works very well. The dashboard plastics end up more matte than glossy with application, something else I appreciate. I am not a fan of super shiny or glossy. Thanks for a great product Maguiars!
