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 quality
Size: Twin, Color: White
This mattress pad is just thick enough without being overly bulky which tends to bunch up after washing. It is super soft and fits twin bed perfectly with just enough padding to add comfort. For a waterproof cover this one is superior to others I've had.

I’m buying more!
Size: Twin, Color: White
The quality of this product is amazing! It looks fantastic, super fluffy and comfortable, keeps accidents from getting onto mattress. It works so well! And is so worth the cost, I’m buying more for the rest of the beds in our house.

Fits great and very comfortable
Size: Queen, Color: White
I purchased because my cat is older and I need something waterproof. It fit my queen bed and my deeper mattress that usually needs extra deep mattresses. It looks nice and went on the bed easily. I have not had her test its waterproof feather yet. I am relieved I do not need to worry or put pee pads down for her. I reas some people find it hot and hear a squeaky sound. I have not experienced either. The padding is a nice addition. I was surprised by the soft padding feature as I was not looking for it. The price was great. I did not want to spend a lot of money for something that did not need forever given my cat is older with kidney problems now. I will not remove it even if it is not needed anymore because I like the cushion. I have purchased the Bedsure brand for other items and always been pleased with their price and quality. I recommend this product

Perfect to stop leaks or stains
Size: Twin, Color: White
This is a wonderful mattress protector that gets the job done. It absolutely prevents stains from leaking through to the mattress. The only thing I don’t like that could be improved is the size and lack of snug fit. It moves a lot but still does the job and is not too hot. It’s very soft and comfortable. Would be 5 star if it had a snug feature or bands to fit under the mattress. Worth it for the price and is long lasting.
