This is a lovely black chiffon cocktail dress dating to the early 1960s, maybe late 1950s.  The ILGWU union label that is affixed to the interior was in use from 1955 until 1963.  The label reads “Carol Robins” with a graphic of a cocktail glass, so definitely, this dress was meant for cocktail parties.  Carol Robins appears to have been a popular brand for party dresses through the 1950s and 60s, but I haven’t found any information on the company.

The dress has a high rounded neckline, short sleeves and is made in a knee length.  It is constructed with a semi-transparent black chiffon fabric over a rayon taffeta base.  The top of the base taffeta lining is cut in a pointed zig-zag design, front and back, to wonderful effect.  It has two spaghetti straps.  The upper bodice, back and sleeves are chiffon only.   The dress has a defined waistline and the skirt is gathered in tucks below the waist so that the skirt falls in drapes.  The chiffon at the upper back hooks at the neckline and forms a peek-a-boo gap.  The dress closes at the back with a fine tooth metal zipper.

Sizing: No size is indicated, but according to my measurements, this should fit a extra small or small size - please rely on the following measurements for fit:

Bust:  33” around, taken under the arms

Waist:  24” around

Hips:  46” around, meant to fall loosely

Overall length:  39", measured flat from the top of the spaghetti straps to the hemline

Condition:  It is in very good, clean condition with no wear, tear, holes, stains or odors.  This dress has been very well cared for and stored over the years.  

This is a gorgeous dress - sophisticated look, sure to be noticed!

Not much about higher education
Format: Paperback
I gave this book 3 stars not because I think it was bad, but because it didn't really have much to do with higher education. I am a big believer in Christian higher education and the integration of faith and learning, however, if you were to take this book and replace "Christian higher education" with a phrase like "the Christian community" or the "Church family" no one would notice the difference. I do believe in much of what he said but that's because I follow Christ. I didn't expect him to spend chapters on what Christians believe and how they differ from other religions, I was hoping for an intelligent argument and exploration of Christian higher education and how it differs from other higher education. And the argument, higher education used to be all Christian higher education is not a good argument. Once again, not a bad book but just not what I expected based on the description and title.

A Sterling Vision of Christian Education
David Dockery is the president of my alma mater, Union University in Jackson, Tennessee. Therefore, I have always taken great interest in keeping up with what Dockery says and does in the realm of Christian higher education. B&H publishing has done us all a favor by pulling together his ideas into a unified book with the theme - "Serving Church and Society through Christian Higher Education". Dockery's heart beats with the passion of a pastor, theologian, academic, and administrator. He sees the Christian university as a place in society where both mind and heart can renewed along biblical and gospel lines. It is difficult work in our day, but it is a necessary work. Dockery writes, "I believe that the integration of faith and learning is the essence of authentic Christian higher education and should be wholeheartedly implemented across the campus and across the curriculum." And how is this accomplished? Dockery says, "We need more than just new ideas and enhanced programs, we need distinctively Christian thinking, the king of touch-minded thinking that results in culture-engaging living. ...This perspective involves the whole of our human personality. Our minds are to be renewed, our emotions purified, our conscience kept clear, and our will surrendered to God's will. Applying the Great Commandment entails all that we know of ourselves being committed to all that we know of God." A number of the chapters in this book simply sparkled with insight. Pastors will especially note the overlap of Dockery's vision of Christian community in the university with what we also hope to find within the local church. For example, Dockery writes a chapter on "Establishing a Grace-Filled Academic Community" that could and should be applied to the local church as well, with an emphasis on unity, shared life, worship, and service. Within chapter six is a section titled, "Building Blocks for Building a Community with Renewed Message", a message with such urgency and clarity that I did in fact bring it home to our church for a renewed sense of Christian community. Such is the case for much of this excellent book. You may not have a vocational calling to higher education. However, as a pastor or Christian parent, it is your responsibility to consider carefully the type of institution you send your students to for university education. Dockery writes, "I would suggest that the starting point of loving God with our minds, thinking Christianly, points us to a unity of knowledge, a seamless whole, because all true knowledge flows from the one Creator to His one creation." Dockery's vision is compelling and sound, and I heartily recommend this book.
