The 'Rio de Janeiro' dress was described thus:
We Weren’t Born to Follow
Wonderful, terrifying, possibly clairvoyant. Knocks you out with a glance. Laughs when you can’t get up. Oh yes.
She’s imperfect, real. Flawed but very close to beautiful.
Clear-eyed, knows more than she really wants to. Protects the innocent. Teases the powerful.
“Indecent,” she whispers as she gathers this dress from your warm outstretched hands. “After all these years.”
She gets up around noon and does whatever she does. When she shows up, she’s late. When I put my foot down, she laughs.
When I met her in Rio de Janeiro, she was wearing this.
It whispers with or without a breeze.
Trust me.
The catalog describes a life that doesn't exist for most of us, but its playful escapism makes me smile. So does this charming anecdote.
