This rare vintage 1950s Helen Rose silk party dress is not only the most joyous confection, but a very important piece of fashion history. 

Helen Rose was an important figure in both fashion and Hollywood from the 1940s, through the 1960s and beyond. An Academy Award-winning costume designer, she worked with young starlets like Elizabeth Taylor while working at movie studio MGM. She was known for her fashion-forward approach, making a name for herself by veering from precise historical accuracy in period pieces. She began producing garments inspired by her designs for the screen, and they quickly became highly-sought-after by her Hollywood clientele. Rose became the premier bridal designer of the time— she designed Elizabeth Taylor's wedding dress for her first wedding in 1950, as well as 

Grace Kelly's wedding dress for her marriage to Prince Rainier of Monaco— see images below. (Elizabeth Taylor's Helen Rose dress was auctioned for

$188,000 in 2013.)

Made in the late 1950s, this dress was designed by Helen Rose and retailed at JW Robinson. The emerald green rich silk is so lush— we rarely see fabric of this quality today. The ruched drop-waist bodice, together with the full pleated skirt and open neckline creates a flattering hourglass shape. I love the way the gathering at the shoulders creates little cap sleeves. But, the draped bow detail steals the show! It's so well done, and adds a unique movement to the dress. It features a silk-chiffon lining in the skirt. Note that the exact fiber contents are not listed

Measurements: PLEASE NOTE that this dress previously was let out in the bodice, so these measurements reflect the dress's current state, although it would be very easy to take it back in following the original seam line. It can be taken in on each side by .75" and at the back zipper by up to about 1" for a total of about 2.5", just following those existing seam lines. (You could obviously take it in more, too.) It is shown clipped on a size X-Small to simulate a proper fit; as-is, it will best fit a size Small and Medium but please refer to below measurements to be sure.

Chest: 36" laid flat (some extra room if needed thanks to gathering)

Waist: 28"

Hips are open

Length: 40.5" from shoulder to hem (can be let out by 4.5" if needed)

Good vintage condition overall; the fabric exhibits some fading in small areas but because of the nature of the silk and its sheen, it's really not noticeable when worn, and doesn't pick up in photos at all. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email [email protected] for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.

Incorrect filter size despite listed compatibility
I bought this kit specifically because the listing clearly states that it is compatible with my Xiaomi robot vacuum. Before purchasing, I double-checked all the specifications. However, when the product arrived, I discovered that the internal filter is smaller than the original one and does not fit correctly. This makes the filter unusable for my vacuum. The seller should update the compatibility information because it is misleading for buyers.

Great quality dust bags – perfect fit for my eufy robot vacuum!
Size: C10 / C20 Bags
These dust bags are exactly what I needed for my eufy Omni C20! They fit perfectly, install easily, and the 3-layer design really does help control dust and odors. The large 3.6L capacity means I don’t have to change them too often, even with daily vacuuming. Great value for the price, and the quality feels just as good as the original eufy bags.

Fits Eufy Vaccum
Size: C10 / C20 Bags
Does fit my basic self emptying Eufy. Have to move it around a bit to get it to recognize the bag, but it does fit!
