When the temperatures drop, the holidays begin, and the department store windows get a festive update, all we want to do is dress the part. We shrug on our cozy sweaters and pile on our hats and gloves. The stars, on the other hand, have red carpets to walk. We’re not saying we’re not busy. it’s just that, well, their agendas might call for a few more black-tie gowns than ours do. And, of course, we can’t help but take inspiration from their glamorous looks.
Yes, this time of year, the shimmering necklines, beaded embroidery, and lace embellishments of designer dresses are what our dreams are made of.
