This is a lovely quality black velvet evening gown made by Montreal couturier Frank Oujezdsky.

This dress dates to the 1960s and is a beautifully made strapless gown.  The bodice is gathered in diagonal seams that meet at a point at the centre of the waistline - it is cut to accentuate the body silhouette.  It is trimmed in black glass beads along the neckline and the hemline.  The dress is lined in a black faille taffeta fabric and is entirely hand finished.

A bit of information about the couturier  Oujezdsky catered to Montreal socialites and is also noted for having made dresses for Gerda Munsinger, the central character in a Canadian spy and sex scandal involving government ministers during the early 1960s.

Fabric: Exceptionally good quality black velvet, probably silk velvet.  Extremely soft and luxurious, with substantial weight so that it falls beautifully. 

Sizing: This will fit a medium size, but please rely on the following measurements for fit, noting the style of the dress:

Shoulders:  17” across

Bust:  36” around 

Waist:  28” around

Hips:  36”-38” around

Length:  55”, measured flat 

Condition:  This is in very good condition with no wear, tear, staining or odor - this dress looks to have seen little use and was well cared for over the years.

This is a gorgeous evening dress - understated, sophisticated and elegant, perfect for a formal occasion.  Great piece for the student of Canadian fashion history - Oujezdsky obviously created beautiful dresses!

So gentle and moisturizing. Great for super sensitive skin.
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
This is so gentle and moisturizing. Does not irritate my skin in any way. My skin is super sensitive and I have atopic dermatitis, it has been the best cleanser I’ve used to date. I was using another one from this brand and it was fine but this is the one I will continually stick with from now on. Just hope they don’t change the formula.

A foaming cleanser that doesn't dry out my skin!
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have very dry, reactive skin and initially looked past this face wash because it is foaming which is usually a no-go for my skin. I am pleasantly surprised with how well my skin tolerated this product. No dryness or irritation and my face felt clean. I also love that it is fragrance free because fragrances seem to really irritate my skin and who needs to smell their face wash? I am happy to say this is another great product from Avene!

Gentle cleanser for dry and sensitive skin.
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser, Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have dry and sensitive skin, and this cleanser has worked very well for me. It is very gentle on the skin and has not caused any irritation. The texture is light and foamy, it spreads easily across the face and rinses off without leaving any residue. After using it, my skin feels clean, soft, and comfortable, without any tightness. The size is quite large, which I find great because it lasts a long time with daily use. Overall, a simple but very pleasant cleanser for sensitive skin.
