Ray of light

You gotta appreciate the irony in this 3.1 Phillip Lim dress. I for one rarely indulge in glitz and glitter, but if I can get that effect through a print rather than blinding, heavy jewels, I'll take it. The fact that the dress is made of jersey is another win. So I could look dressed up in a t-shirt and get away with it? Sweet!

I love this print. I know its costly to do all over print, but is it just me or does anyone feel cheated not having print on the back...? Amanda, do you design clothes?

Amanda said...

it is costly and yeah maybe it would be nice to have it all over, but it might be too busy too..

i don't design clothes but itching to make some stuff...gotta get my grandmother's old sewing machine up here!

As for as tromp l'oeil goes, this one is pretty sick.
