An ultra chic and highly coveted Christian Dior haute couture museum-quality ivory checkered silk pleated mini dress dating back to spring/summer 1968. This incredible work of wearable art was a custom made commission while Marc Bohan was creative director at Dior. As shown, we were thrilled to also find the original French documented editorial showcasing this gorgeous garment. The dress is fashioned in a luxurious mid-weight ivory silk with the most magnificent checkered pattern. The mock turtleneck bodice has long slight-billow sleeves with original pearl cufflinks. My favorite design element is the gold metal trimmed thin waist belt which is so figure flattering.  The pleated mini skirt adds such beautiful texture and looks sensational with movement. This important piece of fashion history would make an unforgettable red carpet or bridal look.

This extraordinary 1968 Christian Dior by Marc Bohan numbered haute couture custom made dress is in beautiful condition with no rips, holes or alternations. The garment closes with original back French éclair metal zipper. The inside is immaculate and all hand-finished. Only sign of age are a few very faint marks which are not noticeable when worn. Please message for detailed pictures. Highly wearable and an investment piece that will continue to increase in value. In 2009, the Dior Museum in Granville put on a show, 'Dior: The Bohan Years,' which featured looks from Bohan’s nearly 30-year career at Dior, including many he created for Princess Grace. In 2018, Assouline published a book by Jerome Hanover, 'Bohan’s Dior: 1961 to 1989.' where he explains, "you see Bohan everywhere. You see [his work] in Prada, Raf Simons, Hermès. I think it will help fashion to remember that Marc Bohan really designed the ’60s.”

thrilling ride of a book
Format: Kindle
Beautiful... I love the tenderness of the father-daughter relationship, and the gentle love between rider and horse, contrasted with the raw thrill of the pre-dawn adventure. This book manages to portray something so specific - an urban horseback ride - with such deep and universal appeal.

Beautiful book!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
This book perfectly exemplifies how soft and simple can be so magical. The lyrical language laden with sensory details, paired with the vibrant visuals, makes for an absolute treat of an experience! The father-child time at night immediately reminded me of OWL MOON and just like owling, urban horseback riding is something we’ve never experienced personally, so it was especially thrilling to experience it with my children through this book. I also love that this book is a celebration of Black culture and joy. Finding the universal through the specific is the key to any good story, and the author has a real knack for it. Just like the Abuelita in this story, my mother is the first to wake up, and we find her nestled in her chair with a cup of coffee. And the description of the little girl’s kiss on her Abuelita’s papery cheek brought back memories of my own grandmother’s papery cheek – something I miss very much. Picture books really are for everyone. All the starred reviews are so well-deserved and I’d be very surprised if this book didn’t win awards. Highly recommend!

Gorgeous, joyful, and moving
Format: Hardcover
This book is simply breathtaking, from the vibrant illustrations to the lovely father-daughter story about the precious alone time they spend together early in the morning. The effect is so powerful and visceral, it feels like you're right there experiencing it with them-- the quiet of the city at dawn, the nostalgia, the sharing of a memory that will last a lifetime. It made me long for my own cherished childhood moments. My kid was fascinated by the idea of horses on city streets, which I guess he's never seen before. And, for my part, I loved the all too rare representation of Black cowboy culture in a picture book. More books like this, please! Final moments of the book highlight the main character's belief in herself... "I'm a cowboy too!" This confidence is partly a result of the love and representation provided by her father. LOVE LOVE this book.

Hands Down Best on the Market
Scent: Sandalwood, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have tried pretty much EVERY beard balm known to man at this point and while some have been okay, what makes this the hands down full on winner for me is not just it's effectiveness but it's scent. A sandalwood product that actually smells like REAL sandalwood and not some sweet, vanilla, gross whatever imitation pretty much every other "sandalwood" scented product out there these days smell like. I am so in love with the scent that I wish this were available as a cologne. As far as it's actual effectiveness, that is also five stars. It's effective without too much shine so it doesn't look too greasy. This is one of the only balms I have found that does NOT break me out. I use it for both my beard and my hair. It's an exceptional pomade! It isn't too greasy, it's got good hold. I'm not sure about conditioning quality yet, but it's been single digits temperature here and normally my beard feels very dry and kind of painful, I don't really know how else to describe it, and I haven't been having that problem since starting this product. Another bonus, it's a great barrier against wind/cold burn. I hope they don't stop selling this product because I for one know I would be a customer for life.
