Long silk crepe dress in brown with white polka dots, c. 1970s (left), and Valentino multicolor silk button-front, pleated shirtdress with broken plaid motif, c. 1970 (right)
V.V. : You can have that plaid Valentino. I want the polka dots, and I’m feeling very Cuban this morning. You know, Panama hat, blazer and flat Gucci moccasins.
J.J. : Oh come on, Viv, live a little! I pulled on my new Gianvito Rossi knee-length boots and tossed my old, beloved Costume National shearling vest over this vintage Valentino dress. Can you say haute-hippie?
