Pin this on. The plain black dress, the reliable jacket, the coat you've worn every winter since forever. Suddenly they all have something to say. Edgy but feminine. Romantic, a little gothic, and quite intoxicating to wear. What is it about tulle? Remember being six, playing dress ups, and that whole fantasy world coming to life? Now you get to live it again. Definitely a grown-up piece, with a hint of nostalgia and a huge amount of experience. Life may not always be easy... but damn, it's fun! (And yes, it looks fantastic on black.)
