This may come as a shock to some of you, but I’m not a big person for musicals — for theater in general, actually. I delight in it when I am put in the way of seeing any, but my first impulse when seeking home entertainment is to reach for a book, and my second is to reach for a long, arc-y, plotty TV show (like The wire — the hotness of Dominic West will go a long way towards warming up January here in Chicago), and my third is to view national icons blow up in spectacular and original ways while eating popcorn. So: not so much with the musicals.
But now I think that it would be funny to wear something like this to an opening night for Chess, wouldn’t it? Sure, I’d be flamboyantly overdressed, but I would have made an effort.
A $650, lose-ten-pounds-first kind of effort, but it would probably be worth it.
If it’s worth it to you, this is up at Shrimpton Couture. I’m not sure exactly how to navigate to it, sadly. The site doesn’t have individual linkable pages for each dress. but you probably won’t mind browsing around, as there’s a lot of other eye candy there, too, and the pictures are good!
