1940s cocktail dress 1940s Spectacular "Gloria" Silk Crepe Swing Dress – Shrimpton CoutureMade from an amazing printed stretch silk crepe that is cut on the bias so has a touch of stretch to it, this dress is one of the best 1940s dresses I have seen. It is tagged as a "registered Gloria dress" but though I have seen this label before I cannot not find any firm information on it. It is a beauty though so this company was definitely doing high end work. It was also definitely stored properly for all these years ,as the colors are as crisp

Made from an amazing printed stretch silk crepe that is cut on the bias so has a touch of stretch to it, this dress is one of the best 1940s dresses I have seen. It is tagged as a "registered Gloria dress" but though I have seen this label before I cannot not find any firm information on it. It is a beauty though so this company was definitely doing high end work. It was also definitely stored properly for all these years ,as the colors are as crisp and vibrant as the day it was made. The base is a deep navy blue and then onto this is are beautiful floral bouquets made of little rounded cornered squares of multiple colors that just  pop off the blue base! The cut is fitted with a high but V neck and extensive pleating along each shoulder and again just above the waist. The waist nips in and is accented even more with an attached panel of fabric that turns into two extremely ling ties that you can wrap and accentuate the waist even more wit. The skirt is cut straight with just a touch of extra fabric worked through the bottom of the vertical seaming so you can move with ease. It truly is a forties femme fatale dress under its floral exterior! Excellent condition.

Unlined and closes with side snaps. Attached ties at the waist.

Easy to use
Color: Navy, Size: 10 Foot, Color: Navy, Size: 10 Foot
Easy setup and easy use, cranks open very smoothly with no trouble. The fabric is opaque (not light filtering) and sturdy with edges sewn to last. This umbrella provides ample shade and sun protection. It works great and is pretty much as expected. I do find the tilt feature a tad tricky sometimes, maybe becsuse I’ve got smaller hands idk, but other than that it’s great.

Budget Baddie...
Color: Tan, Size: 9 Foot
This is a quality/durable self driven (me) beast of an umbrella replacement...It has good color and we chose the Tan 9ft. Easy usage for its weight class all while being budget friendly... atmospheric presence of richness & sturdiness, and very easy to open and close to adjust to this unit's comforts. I haven't put this umbrella out for the season as of yet... because the snow is still present on the grounds of New England! "WE WINN"

Beautiful and works great.
Color: Navy, Size: 10 Foot, Color: Navy, Size: 10 Foot
I decided to try this because my old umbrella had seen better days and it was time to replace it. I am very pleased with the quality and the ease of assembly with this umbrella. It’s very sturdy and I like the quality of the fabric and the metal. It’s very easy to open and close and it makes my patio look great. It gives me the perfect amount of shade and the fabric thickness is perfect at keeping the harsh sunbeams from getting through. I also think the price is great for what you get. I would definitely recommend this umbrella because it’s made well and works well. It’s also very easy to clean. I just use my garden hose and spray it down and let it air dry. It also fit perfectly in the stand I already had and it works great. I am very happy I got to try this out.

Great replacement patio table umbrella.
Color: Tan, Size: 10 Foot
After a windstorm destroyed my old umbrella on our patio set, I was looking for a new one that wouldn't break the bank but also held up to the direct sun of the summer months. This umbrella did not disappoint! The material part of the umbrella top seems like it is nice and thick and the stitching is overlapped in the corners which should provide a lot of strength for the windy days. I really like the neutral colors of the fabric, as that will go well with the rest of my outdoor furniture. The medal pole portion is perfectly straight and the pivot point connection seems nice and tight. I would think that this umbrella will stand the test of time. No assembly needed, just pull it out of the box and extend the fabric.
