This dress…

Yesterday I happened to come across this editorial again and I couldn’t think of anything else to post for today than this dress. It’s a Leonard Paris dress: “The Leonard dress, 150 grammes of happiness, our first slogan…The only condition is that it should be beautiful, that the composition holds. Nothing weak, nothing insipid.” In the magazine they called it néoclassique. I couldn’t agree more. I hope you have a fabulous weekend! Make the best of it as summer is flying by!

    How wonderful the thought behind the dress is!!! “150g of happiness”… Even the words make you smile… I love the 70s-inspired pattern of it, it reminds me of my mum’s dresses I loved so much.
    Wishing you a great day, darling!

    Lovely print! I’ve only ever taken notice of Leonard’s iconic scarves and forgotten they do clothing as well. Not sure if I could get away with wearing this, but it definitely looks good in an editorial setting!
