An exquisite and unique vintage 1940s taffeta sparkling sequin and soutache cocktail dress designed by An Original by Parnes Feinstein.

This dress is so striking and it is absolutely beautiful. I wore this dress on a cruise for dinner one evening and received so many compliments on it as everyone told me how beautiful it was and I might add they were both men and women.  

The color is a lovely steel gray blue with sparkling iridescent sequins "flowers" out of flat soutache trim on the front and back of the dress. The dress has a bit more gray blue than shown in the photos as it was hard to capture the exact shade.  I love the asymetrical curve on one side of the bodice with soutache and sequins.   Metal side zipper.  Vintage pinked seams.    

Absolutely beautiful and would be stunning for any formal affair, an evening out on the town, a cruise or a holiday party.

By: An Original by Parnes Feinstein
Size: No tag but I wear a size 8-10 and it fit me but go by the measurements instead of the size.
Approximate Measurements – This means the measurements of the item listed – not of your own figure.  You must be a few inches smaller than the measurements shown.
Bust: 37 - 38
Waist: 30
Length: 41 - 42
Fabric: No tag but taffeta
Care: Dry clean
Condition: Very good - about 1" of the seam under the arm needs a few stitches to pull closed - repair was made by the former owner (not me) on the left side and up a bit close to the sleeve where the zipper is to the left.  Not noticeable when wearing because it's close to the underarm. About 1" of has come undone and you might want to take the 1-1/4" that was pulled together by the former owner and re-hand or machine sew it with thread a color closer to the color of the dress or just leave it. (Shown in photos)  A few of the soutache braid loops have come undone but only need to be tacked from the inside of the dress to secure.  A cleaner could do these small little repairs if you did not want to do them.

Care Instructions

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.

Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.

Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.

The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements. We hope you enjoy what you purchased but we know sometimes things do not fit quite as you would like or the color is wrong.  In that case, we do allow one exchange or a store credit on any item that you want. There are about 2,000 items in the store and more are being added all the time so you have a large selection to choose from.

You must email before returning an item so I can give you the information that you need to exchange the item.

International customer have 14 days to contact Midnight Glamour about returning an item if they should want to.  International customers may have to pay be additional customs and import taxes and there maybe unforeseen customs delays. The seller is not responsible for these delays nor for the custom charges as that is the international customer's obligation when purchasing an item outside your country.

Quite nice and very functional
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Grey (Metal Silvered), Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Grey (Metal Silvered)
Elegant and substantial - this valet catch all for your night stand or dresser is quite nice and very sophisticated. Sleek and soft brushed suede like material. It was packed well, and is quite nice to keep miscellaneous items corralled together. I’m very pleased and would recommend.

Perfect size, high quality
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
I had a previous catch all tray that I bought on amazon, it used buttons on the 4 corners to turn a flat cardboard into a tray. Over time, the catch all tray got filled up, not just with a wallet, keys and eyeglasses but eventually business cards and other knick knacks. With all the items inside the tray, sometimes the buttons would start to pop out. It wasn't awful, more of an annoyance. But it was time for me to find a more durable tray. I looked on amazon and added 6 different trays that had "potential" into my shopping cart. Then I carefully evaluated each one and deleted them out of my cart until there was only one left. Some had multiple compartments. Some were larger than this one. I felt the ones with compartments would limit my ability to put the things I want in there. Also, I didn't want it so big that it took up too much desk space. Ultimately, I felt this was the perfect size. I'm extremely happy with it, the quality is really nice and it looks and feels durable. No more loose buttons and spilled knick knacks.

Keeps clutter away
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
This works great to corral all my notes I write on post its or small notes. Keeping them hidden from the desk top b/c or the depth but still visible to me. Much better than keeping on the plotter. Looks great in quality .

Attractive, Simple, And Well-Made
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
I use this as a "catchall". A place to stash things like my wallet and keys when I enter the door, so that I don't use them (I had been prone to that!). It serves it's purpose well. It's both sturdy and attractive, and a good size for a "catchall". Recommended for those like me who need such things.

Good quality, orange color
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided), Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
The quality is surprisingly good but the color is much more orange toned in person.
