Laura Ashley was a Welsh fashion designer who started making Victorian style, printed headscarves in 1953 with fabric she printed herself at her kitchen table. By 1961, she and her husband had opened their first shop, and by 1966 started to make the dresses she became known for. This dress is from a little later in their timeline and the date was verified by a follower on my Instagram who wore a pink version in 1985 to their prom.

It has that nostalgic feel to it that all the best of her work has. It is an interesting combination of a more formal silhouette but the fabric it is made from is a cotton. This gives it an interesting mix. The dress is strapless with a fitted and boned bodice that is finished with a small ruffled that runs around its upper edge. It dips into a sharp V at the front waist and then under that is one of the most fabulous skirts I have seen. I have styled it over a light crinoline but it has room to be far fuller even then how it looks and even with no crinoline the sheer volume of fabric gives it a wonderful fullness. It is made up of two layers, the inner layer that is a solid white cotton with a deep ruffle hem hidden under the top layer and then over that is a second layer of cotton. That top layer has that same ruffled edge finish as the bodice dies and is gathered up into little lifts all the way around the skirt. Each lift is finished with a tied bow and another bow ties just above that. This would make a gorgeous summer party dress, or even a wedding dress for someone not looking for a traditional gown. Excellent condition 

The bodice is lined in the same fabric and boned for support. It closes with a back metal and nylon zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. The white is crisp and true.

Just Great!
Color: Beige, Number of Items: 1
Comfortable. Wheels roll very well. Great padding. Seems durable. Assembly is the standard with such chairs, takes about 15 minuttes. Do not know how long the PL? leather fabric will last? Probably wear in a couple of years. But for the price, this is perfect. UPDATE: After 2 1/2 months, seat feels flat and very uncomfortable.

Modern and comfortable, easy to assemble
Color: White, Color: White
Reliable chair with solid quality. Assembly took about 35 mins following the clear instruction sheet. Chair can hold at least 220 lbs, stable and easy to move. Wheels can move in multiple directions. Seat heights and arm are both adjustable. No stain or scratches on the padding surface. White finish looks clean and modern.

Impressive Chair for the price!
Color: Black
Purchased for my mother, she absolutely loves it. She used a secretary style chair forever and said she didn't want a big bulky chair like the executive type until she saw this one. It's comfortable like an executive chair but not quite a big or cumbersome as the executive can be. It took a hot minute to put together but well worth it. Instructions were very clear and easy, I'm in my 60's, if I can put it together anybody can! Chair is well made, solid!

Good chair

This leather office chair is so comfortable. It’s much better than my previous one. The back and the cushion are thick and supportive. Highly recommend this chair. Good value
