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.

Well made necklace organizer!
Color: Black, Size: 2 Layers, 20 Hooks
This necklace organizer is really nice. It’s well made, keeps your necklaces tangle free, and doesn’t take up much space. I love that the necklaces are in clear view, I only wish it was on both sides instead of one with maybe even a swivel base. That being the case, this would be a five instead of four star rating.

Easy to use. Holds up with kids use.
Color: White, Size: 2 Layers, 20 Hooks
Love this! It is great for the price. Don’t know how the paper prongs will hold up long term for frequent use. But it is well constructed out of the box. My child is obsessed with necklaces and needed an easy storage solution that did not include moving a bunch of necklaces to get to the one she wanted. She loves the drawer that comes out. It is easy to use. And works well. Holds a enough necklaces to keep her happy. Also looks nice enough to put on her dresser. Very pleased for the money spent. Highly recommend.

Neat and Square
Color: Black, Size: Square
This turned out to be durable and looks good on my valet table. The difference in the way it snaps to the sides, keeps the corners square and looks better than the other models that force the corners to extend outward.
