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.

Pineapple sunshine
Size: 7" XL-Large
Reviewing this after nearly 4 years. I got this for my dog (sadly has passed away), and this was one of her favorite toys. It didn't squeak but the shape and size was what she loved. Big enough she could chomp on in it and I didn't need to worry about her choking. Small enough she could carry it in her mouth when she wanted to play. This is a durable rubber/rubber-like material, I'd compare it to Kong toys, excellent for a dog who loves to chew and needs a toy that can endure their bite.

The only toy my dog has not destroyed.
Size: 7" XL-Large
This is the only toy my dog has not destroyed. He absolutely loves his pineapple, and has figured out a trick to get the treats out. He has destroyed kong toys left and right, the only damage he has done is he chewed the top off. We just soak and wash it, and refill it. It keeps him occupied and is a great treat.

Our Pup Loves It
Size: 7" XL-Large
Our fur baby usually prefers toys that squeak, but she LOVES her pineapple 🍍 toy! It’s the perfect size, its hardness is strong enough for her to chew but soft enough to flex in her jaws , and doesn’t have a bad odor. For the money, it has been a great value with how it can handle her strong chewing and not break apart.

Good Dog Toy
Size: 7" XL-Large
My dog loves this. It is rugged and durable. Because of the shape it bounces in random directions. Great fun.
