My Favourite Dress

Last night we went to the presentation of the book "My Favourite Dress", a very nice book about designers and creative people who state what is their favourite dress. It was held at the Fashion&Textile Museum, which was a disappointing surprise: very poor&cheap I'd say and the cocktail was made of water and awful white wine. Guests of the night were Zhandra Rhodes and Suzy Menkes (!) but the whole thing was boring and not fashionable at all. An example of what we saw is in the pictures....starting from a look directly from 1992 to hair of every colour and shape (the last girl also decided to match her fantastic orange hair with orange plastic boots, orange necklace and orange ribbon.......you won't get lost darling....) xxJuls

How on earth these women can think they are fashionable???? I mean Fashion is elegance, creativity, a way to express ourselves but please what does it mean to dye your hair orange, or should I say to dye only the hem of your fringe orange, to wear the same day some hunter boots … orange, to buy a plasticky chunky necklace….orange, and borrow the outfit of Beetlejuice on top of it.
La mode is supposed to be a solution, to help us accepting ourselves, to look better than reality. In conclusion, this was the worst fashion event I went to, there wasn’t ONE single sophisticated and stylish woman to admire last night. What a pity for the launch of a book called “My Favorite Dress”. Lou
