This dress is an incredible piece of Halston history. Its twin walked the runway for the Resort 1979 show and the original sketch appears in one of the Halston books and it has the added provenance of the dress that was lent to and worn by Emmanuelle Chriqui in 2002. This is classic Halston from his main label couture line. It is incredibly chic and sexy and one of two important Halston pieces I have for you today. This is an incredible example of his work from this time period. 

This is an amazing couture Halston dress that is a very rare and special find. It is entirely cut on the bias and utilizes his signature minimal seaming. Halston defined how woman dressed in the 1970s and these jersey dresses that he did were tremendously flattering to the body. It is also insanely sexy with the cut out at the front that leaves your stomach bare. The fabric is a beautiful and very light black silk jersey that moves and drapes fantastically. The neckline is scooped with a piped edge that extends up and behind the neck where it hooks into place. On either side of the scoop at the front the fabric extends into panels that create a halter shape. The panels curve down on an angle and secure into the sides of the waist. This leaves the middle part of the stomach bare and open. The panels are then gathered into the piping at the top and wrap around the back in a low curve. The entire back is completely bare and exposed and it is so sexy. The skirt flares out from there and it has a ton of movement when you move. It is spectacular. The jersey is very fine and light and it is cut on the bias and there are yards of it in the skirt. I love that he cut the sides of the skirt slightly longer then the front so you get a bit of a sweeping feel around you. This also helps the skirt to pick up the air when you move so that it billows around you as you walk. Inside the skirt there is an inner layer of silk chiffon and that helps to soften out any bumps underneath the top layer and helps to make it very flattering to wear. This is a very rare example of Halston at the top of his game. It is easy to see why his work is the subject of so many books and retrospective shows at museums worldwide. Excellent condition with a tiny note below.

The bodice is made from two layers of the silk jersey and the skirt has an inner silk chiffon lining. The dress hooks to close with two set so of hooks and then it snaps and hooks below the back of the waist. Hand finished. I see some tiny, snags and pin holes along the hem here and there. The fabric has some stretch but the waist has no give.

Bust: The front halter should accommodate a variety of cup sizes. It is approximately 14 to 17" flat across the front
Waist: 12"
Hips: open
Bodice: approx 15" from neck to waist
Total length: approx 50" from shoulder to longest points of the hem

**Perfect Fit for My 2008 Acura TL**
**Perfect Fit for My 2008 Acura TL** I bought this cabin air filter as a replacement for my 2008 Acura TL, and it fit perfectly 👌. Installation was quick and easy—no issues at all. The build quality feels solid, and the activated carbon is a nice bonus for helping reduce odors and improve air quality inside the cabin. For the price, it's a great value compared to dealership options. Highly recommend this if you're looking for a simple and reliable replacement!

Just what my vehicle's A/C, heat system needed ..
Good fit, and quality. Easy to change. You might be surprised how changing the cabin air filter can improve the airflow in your vehicles A/C, and heat system.

Perfect fit, Easy install, Better than taking it to a dealer.
This filter fits perfectly and easily. Unlike the dealer-installed filter (which I assume was an OEM filter but maybe not), it has arrows that indicate which side and orientation should be facing outward. The dealer-installed one does not have this and, as you can see from the photo, it was installed incorrectly. It should not be folded in on the sides. The old filter in the photo is after about 20K miles if that is a useful reference for you. Also, if you watch any YouTube videos, you will see a reference to releasing a plunger as the first step in releasing the glovebox door. For my 2018 Honda Accord Touring, there was no plunger, and that was confusing to me. If you don't see one, just go to the next step -- squeezing in the top, back corners of the glove box to fold it down. After that, everything goes like in the videos. Getting back to this filter -- it seems like it's better quality than the dealer-installed one. Shipping was fast. I would buy it again but, because this only takes a couple of minutes, next time I would do both the cabin and engine air filter at the same time so you might save a little money buying the combo set. Again, a very easy install and you don't risk having a dealer doing it incorrectly.

Perfect fit
This fit perfectly into my cabin air filter slot. Save me a lot of money, getting it off here as the mechanics went to charge so much more money just to slip this filter into your car. Anyone can do it so don’t hesitate to do your own cabin filter exchange and save yourself big bucks.
