At $795 on net-a-porter.com, perhaps the spirit of Carrie Bradshaw will remain buried a little while longer. For those who want the look but don't relish the price tag, there is an alternative--the 'Strata' dress from modcloth.com. Admittedly it's still a splurge at $199.99, but just look at all that pleating and the exquisite ruffles in the skirt! It's just as likely to induce ballerina fantasies as its Marchesa cousin.
The first is so darling; I love the color!

Those are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteSo Pretty!
ReplyDeleteLOVE it, Lisa. I've been daydreaming about buying a longish tutu-inspired tulle skirt ... but then I remembered I'd also have to somehow buy a sufficiently glamorous life to go with it! Am I gonna wear it to work? Yeah, prolly not.
ReplyDeleteOooh! I like!
ReplyDeletethat blush pink colour looks great on asian skin tones
ReplyDeleteOh! Lisa! There's a light rose one in H&M right now -- If I can find a photo of it, I'll send it to you but I think it was only $59.90. I meant to buy it before I left.

I looove the first tutu dress! One of my favorite scenes in the SATC movie was when Carrie did her mini fashion show in her closet and wore the tutu from the show's opening credits. AMAZING. I don't think I could ever pull off the look, but it's a gorgeous and adorable look.
ReplyDeleteThose are both incredibly lovely.
ReplyDeleteMarchesa dresses are just amazing, I really love that one.
Just look at the work in the second one though! All those frills- so pretty.
