"Callaghan was dripping with baroque embroidery, Afghan jewelry, echoes of Byzantine churches, Russian ballets and Paul Poiret. For the first time, I was re-opening the trunks of my past, of everything I had hidden away in my deepest reaches, and which had pushed me into fashion."
Romeo Gigli
Just in at RARE vintage: Arsenic and Black Fringe
I guess two of my least favorite things in fashion would have to be a sheath dress and a plain black bag. I know they are staples of many women's wardrobe but I find them depressingly boring. I want Drama, Romance, I want to time travel, I want to be a heroine in a book, I want to fall madly, deeply and passionately in love...
"Gigli's women are sumptuously swathed and ethereally detached."

That describes me to a T: sumptuously swathed and ethereally detached : )
How beautiful is this arsenic green silk and fringed Romeo Gigli for Callaghan circa 1988 jacket?! Don't you just want to be sumptuously swathed and elegantly detached too...
