I needed a pair of black satin gloves for a costume I was putting together. Amazon got these to me in one-day, and they were perfect. The black satin was soft and shiny, and didn't look cheap or silly. They paired up with my outfit, and now I've got them tucked away in case I need them again in the future.

Although I used them with a costume, I wouldn't hesitate to wear these for a more formal occassion.
