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.

Great, but a little big…
Style: Lambchop, Size: 10"
Super soft and cute, I got this for my toy Cavapoo puppy. The different textures are perfect. It is a little bigger than I was expecting, and will probably be about the same size as my puppy when I get her, but I’m sure she’ll love it. I don’t know how safe it will be yet since I’ve yet to be able to watch her play with it, but I don’t see anywhere that could have loose strings for her to choke on, so I’d say it’s pretty safe. Overall a perfect toy for dogs, with a squeaker and nice textures for the dog to chew on.

Great value for the price
Style: White, Size: 24" Jumbo
I have gotten smaller versions of this Lamb chop, my dog has loved them all the same but this one is great. It's big enough for him to carry around and it lasts a lot longer since he likes to tear them up fast.

Dog is in love with this Toy!
Color: Assorted, Size: Medium
This is a super great dog toy & one of the best we have purchased for miss "destroy the toy" dog! I have an Australian Cattle Dog who has a pretty big chomp reflex. She destroys most all of her ball toys in just a few minutes because she chomps so hard. So far, this is the only "open type" of dog ball toy she has not ruined quickly. It's actually lasted over a year so far! It is showing some wear & tear & a couple ares have almost been chomped through, but that would be expected with the way she chomps on it. She absolutely adores this toy & it is her total favorite! It has been well worth the money & then some for her. I've already bought a couple of "spares" but she is still playing with the original one I bought. Please note: I never, ever leave it alone with her! I use it only to throw or kick & for her to chase & retrieve. I try not to let her just chew & chomp on it, but that is what she'd really like to do. We play with it all year long, even in the snow. It's fun in winter because it does not sink & get lost in deep snow as quickly as a tennis ball sized toy would. It fills up a bit with snow, but that seems to make it even more fun for my dog. I highly recommend this toy. I just wish JW would offer it in some other brighter colors besides the blue. 01/06/2016 Update: My dog still is playing with this very same Hol-ee Roller X Extreme! I'd bought her a couple of spares but this 1st one is still holding up under her chompers! It's worn looking but has not torn or broke yet. I do not let her just sit and chomp on it though. It used as a retrieving and chasing toy, but she does get a few goods chomps in each time she gets it. We play with this toy basically every single day, so I'd say this is a very durable dog toy and the best one I have bought ! I highly recommend it.
