We come to you today from the local Starbucks, just two ethnic girls talking about fashion. We considered having our meeting at the pop-up nail salon inside the tents because we are the ultimate multitaskers, but there was no room there when we left the beautiful Badgley Mischka show.
Bettina: Gorgeous show. I especially liked the “Upstaging Angelina Jolie” dress. They took the long-sleever she wore to the Golden Globes, made it short, one-shouldered, and tied it with a black velvet bow.
Susan: My favorite was the mink stretch crepe dress because it was both ladylike and va-va-va-voom! And by the way, have you noticed there was some junk in those trunks? The models looked liked they’d had a slice of bread this century.
Bettina: Speaking of junk in the trunk, number 14, the black amethyst taffeta and tulle gown, made me think, My cell phone is in my train, so I don’t need a handbag. And I’m CRAZY about number 16, the midnight satin chiffon gown, because it’s sophisticated, timeless and elegant—oh, and sexy too. Not as crazy about dress number one, a little too “Las Vegas funeral.”
Susan: There was some cha-cha-cha in the collection, like the last dress with the cocarde and cascading ruffles, “Wedding in Marbella,” or “Flamenco, Hoy!” I’ve aged out of that one.
Bettina: And number 25—it’s the “Querida! Tish, That’s French,” sexy Morticia Addams dress.
Susan: Loved the all-out Loretta Young glamour of the entire collection.
