What do you think of this look? I really love it. http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2006/07/14/fashion/16street.ready.html [SIZE=-2]Bill Cunningham/The New York Times[/SIZE] [SIZE=-1]Young women are seen about town in dresses that resemble those of little girls. The dresses have the airiness of a butterfly, often in eyelet embroideries or diaphanous fabrics that have been re-embroidered. Most of the dresses are white. One of the most beautiful, top right, is from Chloé in Paris, recalling the 1960s signature baby-doll dresses that were worn by everyone, including grandmothers. The lovely butterfly wafting over the Sheep Meadow in Central Park is by the master kitemaker and flier, Frank Rodriguez, a fixture on the lawn for decades. [/SIZE]
I think they're really cute. I don't really like the white dress with the black leggings, personally though.
Thank you sonya! Its from Ann Taylor 3 That one and one other dress are like the only girly dresses I own, I really like them.
it can be a great look, but I too hate it when you have a really pretty white dress & then you go & put thick black tights on with it!! ok! I get it! its being ironic! its 'updating the look' but it looks awful! so stop it! I've been hankering after the Miu white summer shift since christmas.......
I have LOTS, I love wearing white dresses. Empire line down to just above the knee and slightly shorter with a less restrictive skirt (a bit like the Chloe one in the top pic) I love them especially to go to the beach and strolling in the park or for picnics (I think it goes really well with the green grass). Except every time I wear one someone always push me to the ground to make me get a grassy bum, LOL!
lmao bee! yeah, I know that problem! its like ,as soon as I'm in white I become a grass/stickyfingers/orange juice/ice cream/chocolate/tomato sauce/blackcurrant/mud magnet! and that is not a good look in this months Vogue (UK) they have an article about a stylist & shes wearing the Chloe tunic over jeans! how tall must she be? Its not much more than a tshirt on her! looks fabulous though...
