This vintage drop-waist beaded silk dress was made by Victoria Royal in the 1980s. The brand is known for their opulently beaded-silk eveningwear. I love this dress for many reasons, starting with its versatility— the straps are removable, so it can be worn strapless, or with the dainty spaghetti straps. The drop-waist bodice is entirely beaded, giving way to a gathered skirt with a peplum— each edge is scalloped to emphasize the petal-like effect. This silhouette reminds me of a modern version of Christian Dior's famous Venus and Junon gowns. The structured silk material loans itself well to the sculpted silhouette. The bodice is boned on the sides to create a flattering hourglass shape. (Note that fiber contents are not listed, but it feels like silk.)

Measurements: This will best fit a size Medium, or possibly Small; note that the bodice is boned and meant to be very fitted. (Shown clipped on a size X-Small to simulate proper fit.)

Chest: 35.5"

Waist: 28" laid flat, up to about 29" pulled taut 

Hips: 39" laid flat, up to 40" pulled taut

Length: 34" from top of neckline to longest hem points (hem is scalloped)

Good vintage condition overall, with minor wear commensurate with age, including some minor loss to beading in a patch on the back, but it truly is not at all noticeable when worn, and because of the way the beading is done, it won't cause any additional loss. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email [email protected] for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.

Not much about higher education
Format: Paperback
I gave this book 3 stars not because I think it was bad, but because it didn't really have much to do with higher education. I am a big believer in Christian higher education and the integration of faith and learning, however, if you were to take this book and replace "Christian higher education" with a phrase like "the Christian community" or the "Church family" no one would notice the difference. I do believe in much of what he said but that's because I follow Christ. I didn't expect him to spend chapters on what Christians believe and how they differ from other religions, I was hoping for an intelligent argument and exploration of Christian higher education and how it differs from other higher education. And the argument, higher education used to be all Christian higher education is not a good argument. Once again, not a bad book but just not what I expected based on the description and title.

A Sterling Vision of Christian Education
David Dockery is the president of my alma mater, Union University in Jackson, Tennessee. Therefore, I have always taken great interest in keeping up with what Dockery says and does in the realm of Christian higher education. B&H publishing has done us all a favor by pulling together his ideas into a unified book with the theme - "Serving Church and Society through Christian Higher Education". Dockery's heart beats with the passion of a pastor, theologian, academic, and administrator. He sees the Christian university as a place in society where both mind and heart can renewed along biblical and gospel lines. It is difficult work in our day, but it is a necessary work. Dockery writes, "I believe that the integration of faith and learning is the essence of authentic Christian higher education and should be wholeheartedly implemented across the campus and across the curriculum." And how is this accomplished? Dockery says, "We need more than just new ideas and enhanced programs, we need distinctively Christian thinking, the king of touch-minded thinking that results in culture-engaging living. ...This perspective involves the whole of our human personality. Our minds are to be renewed, our emotions purified, our conscience kept clear, and our will surrendered to God's will. Applying the Great Commandment entails all that we know of ourselves being committed to all that we know of God." A number of the chapters in this book simply sparkled with insight. Pastors will especially note the overlap of Dockery's vision of Christian community in the university with what we also hope to find within the local church. For example, Dockery writes a chapter on "Establishing a Grace-Filled Academic Community" that could and should be applied to the local church as well, with an emphasis on unity, shared life, worship, and service. Within chapter six is a section titled, "Building Blocks for Building a Community with Renewed Message", a message with such urgency and clarity that I did in fact bring it home to our church for a renewed sense of Christian community. Such is the case for much of this excellent book. You may not have a vocational calling to higher education. However, as a pastor or Christian parent, it is your responsibility to consider carefully the type of institution you send your students to for university education. Dockery writes, "I would suggest that the starting point of loving God with our minds, thinking Christianly, points us to a unity of knowledge, a seamless whole, because all true knowledge flows from the one Creator to His one creation." Dockery's vision is compelling and sound, and I heartily recommend this book.
