  • The twin of this incredible dress walked the runway for the Fall 1995 collection.
  • It was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino.
  • I love that we have runway reference photos so that you can see how phenomenal this is once on the body. 
  • This is a fantastically rare dress by the original Mr. Valentino and it is extraordinarily beautiful.
  • The dress combines an inky black velvet with portions covered in glossy black sequins that are densely applied. Little bits of lace give it that touch of Valentino femininity.
  • Black piping outlines the neckline and the neckline scoops in a soft V down the front. The piping continues up and over the shoulders and then crosses over the bare and exposed back. Lace has been added along the length of the entire piping for the prettiest finishing detail.
  • The bodice is shaped and comes in at the waist to a low seam that sits just below the natural waist. The entire bodice has been finished with tiny little black sequins that are densely applied so that they slightly overlap. 
  • I love how the rows that they are set in are slightly angled. This is all a clever way to give illusion of more shape through the body. The sequins sit inside four vertical panels across the front and the direction of the sequins changes so you get this incredible hitting of the light on the sequins from every angle.
  • The skirt is made out of rich black velvet and I love the combination of the velvet and sequins together. The richness of each textile perfectly compliments the other.
  • As the skirt falls to the floor it flares out dramatically and is extremely wide. When I lay it out flat the bottom is a full circle around. This has been achieved by long triangles of sequins set in around the entire hem of the skirt.
  • The triangles have a black net backing so if the light hits them in the right way they have a sense of transparency contrasting further to the velvet and adding to the beauty of the dress once it is on the body.
  • The sequin triangles have been laid out with the same technique as the rows on the bodice. They are set on angles that meet at a middle point. This allows them to catch the maximum amount of light from every angle.
  • Each triangle is finished with the same lace edging that you see on the bodice. Inside the inner edge of the hem there is a band of stiffened netting that helps to hold the shape and volume around you. When you move the skirt moves around you and it is absolutely incredible.
  • It is really an outstanding example of his work during this time period.
  • The dress is fully lined in a silky black silk and closes with a hidden set side zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. The bias cut should allow it to work on a range of sizes and frames.
  • There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below
  • Excellent condition

Bust: 16-18" flat across from side seam to side seam
Natural waist: 13-14" flat across from side seam to side seam

A Comprehensive Framework for Tackling Complexity with Confidence
Format: Kindle
Strategic Problem Solving is a powerhouse of a guide for anyone navigating today’s fast-paced, high-stakes business environment—or just dealing with tough challenges in general. Mark Hartley distills years of expertise into an actionable, easy-to-follow framework that makes complex decision-making feel manageable. The seven-step framework is the star of this book, offering a logical, systematic approach to breaking down big problems and creating solutions that stick. Each chapter walks readers through a specific phase of problem-solving, from defining the problem with precision to communicating and implementing solutions with clarity and impact. This isn’t just theory—every concept is illustrated with real-world examples, case studies, and practical tools like flowcharts and work plans. What makes this book stand out is its versatility. It’s perfect for professionals like executives, consultants, and managers, but the ideas can also apply to personal challenges. The tools for critical thinking, prioritization, and creative innovation feel universally relevant. Hartley’s writing is clear and concise, making even complex strategies approachable. One of my favorite aspects is the emphasis on real-world application. For example, the chapter on disaggregating problems compares tackling a challenge to scaling a mountain, encouraging readers to “break the mountain into hills.” It’s practical advice that sticks, and the accompanying tools like mind maps and timelines make it easy to translate into action. This book is more than just a manual for solving business problems—it’s a mindset shift. It helps you think critically, lead confidently, and make smarter decisions. Whether you’re managing a team, driving innovation, or simply trying to up your problem-solving game, this guide will be an invaluable resource. Highly recommended for leaders, thinkers, and anyone striving to navigate complexity with skill and precision!

Mastering Strategic Problem Solving
Format: Kindle
This book offers a comprehensive approach to tackling complex challenges through a practical, step-by-step framework. It guides readers in defining and breaking down problems, prioritizing for impact, and implementing solutions effectively. A notable strength is its emphasis on real-world application, featuring case studies and examples from diverse industries that demonstrate the framework in action. The chapter "Disaggregate the Problem into Smaller Pieces," for example, introduces the concept of disaggregation by comparing a complex problem to a towering mountain that becomes manageable when broken into smaller hills. This vivid metaphor, coupled with examples like successful product launches, illustrates how breaking challenges into components reduces cognitive load and sharpens focus. Tools such as mind mapping and flowcharts are explained in detail, enabling readers to visualize relationships and streamline decision-making processes. Aimed at consultants and aspiring professionals, this guide equips readers with the mindset and techniques to solve problems strategically. While insightful and well-structured, its academic tone may appeal more to professionals than casual readers. Nonetheless, its clear methodology and actionable exercises make it an excellent resource for anyone seeking to enhance their decision-making skills.

A very good and helpful book
Format: Kindle
This book provides a well-structured, step-by-step approach to tackling challenges effectively. The book outlines a seven-step process, beginning with defining and identifying the problem, and then walks the reader through practical techniques like mind mapping, prioritization, and overcoming decision paralysis. Further, one of the book’s strengths is its wealth of real-world examples and case studies, which make the concepts tangible. The discussion on managing time in problem-solving, critical thinking, and addressing communication barriers is particularly insightful. Additionally, Heartly introduces useful frameworks such as the "inner matrix" and role mapping, which help in breaking down complex problems into manageable parts. While the content is valuable, the writing can feel a bit wordy, and some sections could flow more smoothly. The references are also quite small (in the ebook), making them a bit difficult to read. However, these are minor drawbacks in an otherwise solid guide. Overall, this book is a great resource for anyone looking to enhance their problem-solving skills, whether in business, leadership, or personal decision-making.This book offers a clear, seven-step approach to tackling challenges.

Problem-Solving Made Clear
Format: Kindle
I picked up this book hoping to get better at tackling complex work challenges, and it actually delivered a solid framework I could use right away. The seven-step approach isn't revolutionary, but it's presented clearly with real examples that made sense in my day-to-day role. What I liked most was how it breaks down overwhelming problems into manageable pieces—something I struggle with when everything feels urgent. The case studies from different industries helped me see how the same principles apply whether you're in consulting, tech, or manufacturing. It's not flashy or overly theoretical, just practical tools that help you think more systematically. If you want a straightforward guide to better decision-making without getting lost in business jargon, this one's worth reading.
