He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short lived.

In the 1960s if you wanted to wear something with a dramatic flare then you chose the work of Ronald Amey. He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short-lived. From 1959-1969 he designed under the label Burke-Amey. Joseph Burke, his partner, took care of the business side of things. In 1970s he bought out Burke and renamed the company Ronald Amey where he continued to produce his dramatic clothing until the label shuttered in 1976. His clothing was of very high quality and he incorporated many couture level details into their construction. All of his pieces were sewn in-house at his New York atelier

One of his signatures was to combine bold colors, prints and fabrics in interesting, unusual ways and this dress is a splendid example of that. The colors are bold and the mix is dramatic. The bodice and sleeves are sheer orange printed silk chiffon that is layered over the same printed coral ribbon silk that you see used for the skirt. This gives the top a very couture and quirky feel. The neckline is cut wide across the collarbones and it is anchored by a wide band of blue silk satin that is top-stitched in gold thread. This curves around the neckline and then down the front on either side of the notched front. The panel continues past the seamed waist and runs down the center of the skirt where it ends with a large diamond of the same fabric in brown. More of the blue runs around the hem and then is used again for the cuffs on each sleeve. The combination of the orange, coral and blue is spectacular . The heavy dose of all those prints, colors and patterns should not work but it does. The perfect finish is the wide fabric belt made of the same blue as the banding and this wraps around the waist where you can cinch it in and leave it simple as I did or tie it in a far more elaborate way. The exterior is in excellent condition with a note about the lining to review below.

Fully lined in a bright peach silk throughout except for the sleeves. Entirely hand finished. It closes with a front zipper and there are zippers on each cuff. The zippers stick a bit when you open and close them. There is shattering of the silk around each arm on the interior. The exterior fabrics are sound and show no wear at all. The exterior of the dress appears to have been worn very little. The dress is even better in person.

A Great Pair of Small PC Speakers
Size: 1 Pair, Color: Silver, Size: 1 Pair, Color: Silver
These are great little pc speakers. They hookup easily, give off great sound, have an in line cord volume control and look great on the computer desk. The only thing missing is an on/off switch so you have to detach the usb to turn off the power, if desired, when the PC is on. My usb port is on the front of my desk top so it's easy.

Don't by used from amazon
Size: 1 Pair, Color: Black
Bought them used (don't do it plz) and they work well but at times I notice a hissing sound that always happens when I'm not playing any audio from them, and then there's times where there's no hissing sound. It's not the loudest but it can get kind of annoying. I'm sure it's because I bought them used but oh well, saved a few bucks and this is what I get. Other then that though the actual sound quality of the speakers is crazy good for the money. Speakers have nice weight to them and really decent bass to em as well. Just gotta give it 3 stars since Amazon didn't find it necessary to 1. Didn't clean the product before shipping so that it was in a presentable state, came to me hella dusty 2. Idk if anyone actually did long enough testing on this product when it got sent back, or else they would've fixed the hissing problem. I assume that was why it was sent back in the first place 3. Box was terribly packaged. No bubble wrap what so ever, the box the actual speakers were in also had nothing keeping them safe from getting smacked around during shipping. Multi billion dollar company can't even go the extra mile for the people who are paying them and keeping them in the business.

Perfect!
Size: 1 Pair, Color: Black
My husband wanted old-school plug-in speakers that had quality sound. These fit the bill and at an excellent price! They function exactly how the older speakers did, plug in and enjoy! No need to mount but you can if you wanted to. Easy to use and they have great volume. He does music making and video game development, so he needed the sound quality.

Unbelievable Performance!
Color: Black, Size: 6 Feet, Style: 5-Pack, Color: Black, Size: 6 Feet, Style: 5-Pack
I didn't expect such a great performance by these charging cables since even they are not brand. Decent price for a bunch of solid and plenty long charging cables. These are in high quality and charge fast the cell phone. Don't waste your money buying at the stores or the branded one.

Good reliable cable
Color: White, Size: 6 Feet, Style: 1-Pack
Very good quality cable works as expected with no issues at all. Easy to clean seems more durable than the OEM cable from Apple. Well pleased- I have several.
