This is a classic early 1950s day dress in a great print - these are not easy to find. The shirtwaist style is tweaked with a curvy pointed collar and perky short sleeves. The full skirt is softly pleated into the waist seam.

FABRIC/COLORS: A geometric print in dark turquoise against a white background. The turquoise squares are designed to look like bold paint strokes, complete with streaks and jagged edges. They are arranged in patterns that alternate between vertical and horizontal. The fabric itself is a medium weight cotton.

TAGS: Mode O Day, Styled in California

CLOSURES: The dress opens completely in front, closes with eight oversized white buttons. There is also a single snap just above the waist, most likely added after-market to prevent gaping. There is a belt loop but no belt - I have shown the dress in some photos with a belt from my closet - it is not included with purchase.

CONDITION: The teal color has blurred slightly in the right underarm area -see closeup. A former owner did some minor seam repair work under both arms using a sewing machine - you can see in the closeups that it was not expertly done, resulting in some very minor seam creasing - fabric is intact. There is also a subtle 1" tannish discoloration along the edge of the bodice placket - see second closeup. No other issues noted.

Medium heavy shelf, Easy to install, looks great, perfect for this utility room. Less expensive than others, A++.

Metal Parts are Flimsy
Color: Natural, Size: 72 Inch
The wood shelf part is very nice, but the hardware is lacking for this length of shelf. The bracket that mounts to the wall is very thin metal, and mine was warped so that I had to bend it a bit to mount it straight. It also allows the shelf to bounce at the slightest touch, even though it is attached at the studs. I had to use a couple of chair brackets on the bottom of the shelf to keep it steady, which kind of defeats the "floating shelf" look. That said, with the brackets it is now quite sturdy and doesn't look bad at all.

STUNNING!
Color: Natural, Size: 55 Inch, Color: Natural, Size: 55 Inch
Absolute perfection! Beautiful NATURAL, solid wood. These are not your straight manufactured shelves. These shelves are beautiful with all of their beautiful characteristics. No two shelves are a like and nor should they! I highly recommend the live edge boards for an upscale look.

Needs better hardware
Color: Natural, Size: 36 Inch, Color: Natural, Size: 36 Inch
Shelf looks nice, but it’s a heavy piece of wood. The hardware that’s included is not strong enough. The hardware broke and the shelf fell the first day.
