An important and truly breathtaking one-of-a-kind metallic gold lamè trained couture dress custom-made for icon Yma Sumac. This ultra rare masterpiece dates back to the mid 1950's. Yma Sumac (1922–2008) was a noted Peruvian soprano and the original Queen of Exotica. Her international fame began in the early 1950's and she became the most famous proponent of exotica music. She is remembered best for her extraordinary vocal range, which was well over four and a half octaves. She was also quite the fashionista, and in 2010 'V' fashion magazine voted her one of the top 5 World Muses! 

Crafted from opulent metallic gold lamé, the dress features a seductive sculpted low-plunge bustier bodice with inner boning construction and a padded bust for a flawless, figure-enhancing fit. The garment's most striking feature is the unique, fluid train, which offers endless styling possibilities. Whether draped around the neck as a dramatic scarf or left flowing in a cascade of liquid gold to the floor, the train enhances it's unique 'Old Hollywood' allure. The front slit, combined with the gown’s sleek, hourglass fitted silhouette, offers a quintessential femme fatale vibe—effortlessly glamorous and impossible to ignore. As Damon, Yma Sumac's personal assistant, told me, "Yma loved elegance mixed with a touch of exotic. I was fascinated to see how much effort was put into each piece and what was added inside for the perfect physique". A piece like this is more than just a dress—it's a true work of art and a rare treasure that encapsulates Yma Sumac's extraordinary life both on and off the stage. This one-of-a-kind creation is a testament to her timeless elegance and the lasting impact she made on the worlds of both music and fashion. An iconic slice of 'Old Hollywood' glamour that would be an epic red carpet look.

Like that it can be charged while it's stored
Color: 7-in-1 Silver, Size: Rechargeable Set
I like that this wine bottle opener can be charged on the stand, making it always ready to perform. No worry about batteries or needing a charge before the dinner/party. It's handy to have the foil cutter and aerator beside the bottle opener and the stoppers which use the end of the bottle opener to remove air from partial bottles for temporary storage were a plus!
