Dream State

I love beautiful paintings, clothes, pastries, teas, make-up, films, books, decorations...whatever...all of it. So what would it be like if they all went together? If I took a painting and thought of the all the things I love that went with it. What gorgeous outfit would I wear to see the painting? What would I eat afterwards? What would I put in my living room to remind of of it later? That's what this is. A confluence of lovely things as informed by a piece of fine art.

The Dress

 
A gorgeous Nina Ricci ensenble that I believe Madame Marie-Antoinette would love.  The poufyness of the top takes cues from Marie's neckline and her flamboyant headdress.  The skirt has a lovely bow just like the one along MA's bust line.  You could wear this to the museum, fit in gorgeously with the painting, but not look silly when you leave as there is a modernity to it that makes it work almost anywhere. I want it. (photo from Style.com, Nina Ricci Spring 2011 Ready-to-Wear Collection)
