Blair Waldorf's 3.1 Phillip Lim Champagne/Tan Satin "Constellation" Crystal Dress, Gossip Girl S2 E13 (size 2)

Blair Waldorf (played by Leighton Meester) wore this 3.1 Phillip Lim champagne satin crystal "Constellation" dress in Gossip Girl Season 2, Episode 13, "O Brother, Where Bart Thou?" Brand new with original tags circa 2008. This is one of the heaviest episodes of the entire series. Bart Bass is dead. At the wake, Blair finally says the words she's been swallowing for two seasons — "I love you" — and Chuck answers, "That's too bad." Hours later, Eleanor and Cyrus decide life is too short and marry on the spot in an impromptu ceremony at the Waldorf penthouse, and Blair stands there in this dress: celebrating her mother's happiness in the same breath as her own heartbreak. Champagne-colored silk at a wedding held in the shadow of a funeral: iconic. The dress is from 3.1 Phillip Lim's Fall 2008 "Constellation" collection, and the name is literal: tiny crystals are scattered across the champagne satin like stars, gathering into the dress's signature detail — a dramatic sunburst "fan" of pleats radiating from the bodice. Fans ranked it among the very best looks of the entire season, singling out the gorgeous fan detail and the way the fabric drapes across the body. It's Grecian-goddess-meets-Old-Hollywood, and it photographs like liquid.
