Diana Vreeland rarely got it wrong, but we’re taking issue with her axiom, “It’s not about the dress you wear, but it’s about the life you lead in the dress.”
We’ll admit that real life can occasionally be more interesting than lamé. But Diana clearly hadn’t bargained for one of the new season’s sweetie-wrapper shiny, limelight-stealing numbers, each boasting more personality than a room full of rock stars.
Imagine, for instance, telling Attico’s disco-pink column dress that you’re “just too tired” to venture out. And won’t those dazzling rhinestone-fringed sandals feel miffed if you don’t take them for a test drive?
This winter, a metallic dress is the party. Heads up: they won’t take “maybe next time” for an answer.
