I was extremely concerned for a second that this might be pants. IT IS NOT. However, it is custom, as per usual, and once again I find that there are some nice elements put together in an underwhelming whole that just makes me shrug and move along. The top might sit a bit too low. And the shape of it might've been cuter if they'd just made it a short dress.

She looks like she's the college professor you feared most, staring you down at graduation like she knows there's no diploma inside your little leather folder.

Ditto. Listen, I'm tired of Yorgos movies, but the guy must be very fun to work with because he has a lot of repeat collaborators.

I do not gravitate to this, but I think she looks good, if that makes sense. The design doesn't thrill me but it fits the occasion, it fits HER, and the shoes and the arm band give it a little zing. It's kind of, "What if Carrie Bradshaw got up and took the tablecloth WITH her."
