  • This gorgeous Pierre Cardin dress is from the 1978 Haute Couture season. 
  • It was made under the creative direction of Pierre Cardin.
  • The dress would have been made completely by hand in the Paris atelier. 
  • This is a fantastic Haute Couture dress by Pierre Cardin that shows the breadth and depth of his talent. It is also an interesting insight on the volume and play on proportion being done during this time period.
  • The dress is made out of a very black silk chiffon that is feather light in weight. It gives the dress phenomenal movement around you once on the body.
  • The design is simple and has a minimalist feel but is still striking and dramatic. As good as it looks even in these photos it will only truly come to life once on the body.
  • The neckline is squared off on both sides with the back dipped slightly lower. It is cut wide across to show the collarbone and if you want the sleeves worn up on the shoulder it will sit right on the outer edge. If you choose to wear it off of the shoulders, the top of the sleeves drape down the arm and leave your shoulders completely bare.
  • I love that you have the option of wearing the sleeves either way as it really changes how sensual and bare the dress will feel.
  • Inside the bodice of the dress there is a strapless soft cupped bra made out of nude stretch lingerie fabric. 
  • The silk chiffon falls from the shoulders and skims over the bust, flows past the waist and hips and then it widens out a touch as it nears the floor.
  • The easy flowing cut of the dress makes it easy to fit and wear.
  • Under the top layer of black silk chiffon there is a layer of a dark brown silk chiffon. This keeps the dress from being fully transparent and at the same time it creates the illusion that the dress is more transparency than it actually is as the two colours play against each other. 
  • The sleeves are phenomenal. They are cut on a curve and are gathered into a silk piped wrist finished with a little bow made of the same piping.
  • Once on they balloon out fantastically above your wrists. They are one of the most exaggerated balloon sleeves that I have ever actually seen. They are quite brilliantly executed.
  • It is an incredible dress and a rare example of his couture work from this era.
  • It is remarkable piece of Haute Couture and a true piece of fashion history.
  • The dress is fully lined with a layer of dark brown silk chiffon. It slips on to wear and the inner bra hooks to close. It appears that a extension piece was added to the bra at some point and it would be easy to adjust the fit on that if needed. I have included the measurements of the outer dress for you as well as the inner bra. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
  • The dress has no size tag since it is true couture. Please go by the measurements below.
  • Excellent condition

Sleeves: 24" to the actual wrist and then the sleeve extends another 10" past that when hanging loose. They are 17" around the upper arm.
Inner bra: tagged 34-35B and is 15-17" flat across from side seam to side seam, the outer dress is to 17.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: to 16" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 19-20" flat across from side seam to side seam
Total length: 58" from top of shoulder to hem

Nicely built, does the job, the stand is an excellent add
Size: 2.0
Its a WDT tool; that and a magnetic funnel for the basket are sort of "the deal" for getting an even distribution in your portafilter to resolve channeling issues. Its the proper size for E61 and similar-sized espresso machines and thus is compatible with basically all but the small "economy" units; for those you probably want something with less "splay" on the needles. The material and design make it "knock it on the side of the counter" easy to keep clean and the magnetic stand means its right there and won't get damaged. For relatively small money it doesn't get better than this in doing the job. Recommended.

Works Great - Better results With Shot
Color: Matte Black
Very happy with the tool. My first experience using a WDT tool. Really helped my shot quality. I like the stand it comes with. I don't find it that hard to place back in the stand. If anything a slight inward push on the needles and goes in. The number of needles make it easy to use. The size is convenient for use and doesn't take up much room. I keep it next to my grinder. The extra needle set is great. Highly recommend.

Great product
Color: Matte Black
This is a really good product. I stopped leaving reviews - too time consuming. Yet I feel compelled to compliment this coffee distribution/de-clumping tool. I am not receiving any benefit other than being satisfied with this item. Delivered quickly. Great protective packaging-impressive. The entire base with top sits attractively and unobtrusively on the counter by my espresso machine. The base is heavy and stable. The top which contains the pins for distributing the coffee, fits easily and quickly into the base after each use. The pins and pattern of the pins make the distribution/de-clumping quick and easy. At first, I thought the pins might be too fine (too small gauge) but they work great. I had been using a wood skewer (for grilling) by sharpening one end with a knife into a point and then stirring the grounds. This tool works faster and more efficiently and, distributes more evenly than my home-made tool. The only alternative I considered was one reviewer’s wry suggestion to just push some sewing needles into a cork for the distribution tool. That would work just fine but, it wouldn’t look so good on the counter or complement my top quality espresso machine, grinder, tamper, scale, etc. Well worth the price.

Worth it - just buy it!
Color: Matte Black
After a month experimenting with my new Breville Barista Express, I finally decided that a few of the basic accessories actually would make a difference in my coffee, so I got this as well as a distributor tool, and there is a noticeable difference. I consistently get excellent extractions, where before, I would occasionally get a shot that clearly was not distributed and tamped properly. The price for these tools was combined, less than $30 and most definitely worth it!
