If you click in and look at this larger, you can tell more easily that this dress does not use, say, illusion netting. That is plastic -- as is the poofy overskirt. Oh, Karl Lagerfeld, you scamp!!!

I hope it's not too warm in Venice because I feel like this might get humid! (As ever: Her head looks fantastic. I love this pixie cut on her.)

As lightly wacky as this dress is, Taylor also wears it very well and it's definitely FUN. It's always exciting to see something come out of the archives and this is a great pull.

Earlier, at the photocall, she wore vintage Galliano. As problematic as Galliano is, this suit is killer.
