That dress.
We’ve mused that perhaps it looks better in your head than on your body (that is, if you’re not Irina).
So at this point, perhaps it’s fitting that the dress of so many’s dreams is the garb of an imaginary friend:
Simone, Barneys creative director Simon Doonan’s other half.
Simone also wears Stella McCartney sandals and Shu Uemura false eyelashes. Doonan has a lot of fun fleshing out her life. Fashion is, after all, a realm of fantasy.
We like the idea of imaginary fashion friends a lot. They can wear Louboutin stilettos all day, Comme des Garcons pieces without fear of ridicule, and they wear the same size in every designer.
What would you dress yours in?
(Please don’t say That Dress).
