This dreamy vintage 1980s Victor Costa pastel floral dress features the most 1980s shape, including voluminous puff sleeves, and a fitted princess-seam bodice with a dropped waist. It subtly creates an hourglass shape. These puff sleeves are really exaggerated, which I love, with tulle on the interior to help them hold their shape. There is some versatility with the neckline, as the sleeves can be worn off the shoulder, and can also be pulled up and worn on the shoulder; there is hidden elastic at the top of the sleeve that allows it to firmly stay in place no matter how you wear it. The fitted bodice gives way to a fuller skirt— there is a built-in tulle petticoat to support the fullness of the skirt. The pastel floral print feels like it was painted in watercolor, with all the best spring-y colors. The material is exceptionally soft and slinky. (Fiber contents are not listed but it feels like a cotton/silk blend.) The bodice is fully lined and it closes in the back with a zipper. Made in the USA. After studying in Paris, Victor Costa got his start in the New York fashion world making wedding gowns, and he translated that same fantasy into his subsequent foray in the ready-to-wear world. In 1973, he started his own eponymous label, Victor Costa, and cultivated a large following of customers and fans, including Whitney Houston and the cast of the television series Dynasty. Costa is best known for his decidedly "American" interpretation of European couture.

Really good product
Size: 10MM 2ROLLS, Size: 10MM 2ROLLS
I use this thermal tape when heat pressing designs onto shirts, and it’s been really useful for keeping the design in place while moving the shirt on and off the press. Without tape, the design can shift pretty easily, but this helps hold everything steady so the placement stays accurate. One thing I really like is that it removes cleanly and doesn’t leave any sticky residue on the shirt or the design, which is important when working with heat transfer materials. It also holds well during the pressing process as long as it’s applied correctly. The only small issue I noticed is that if you don’t press the tape down firmly when placing it, it can peel off a bit easier than expected. Making sure it’s stuck down properly fixes that problem though. Overall, it’s a helpful tool for anyone doing heat press or shirt printing, especially if you want to keep designs from moving during the process.

Works great as advertised
Style: Printer & Inks, Style: Printer & Inks
Working great so far! Enjoying starting doing sublimation work. A rookie a few weeks in and it's going well. Print quality is decent. Not having paper jam issues. Was easy to setup. I had to goto Epson and download a current print driver to get all the print properties and printer settings I needed. Was easy. After I installed the 2nd driver and saw it worked better, then I uninstalled the 1st epson driver. Helped allow for 8.5 x 14 page size and high quality. Just a few options needed that were not showing on the original print driver. Took me a few days to figure out what was going on. It helped with the quality of the prints after I got the better driver. So the end product is better also.
