Viviana Volpicella Vs. J.J. Martin: A Fashion Face-off

JJ: This is a classic 1970s dress—the cotton is super sturdy so it doesn’t wrinkle and the print is a happy, instant mood booster.  What more could you want?

VV: I would never wear this dress normally.

JJ: What are you talking about? I have seen you with my own two eyes wearing dresses like this.

VV: I don’t know. I chose to wear it like a cape—like I’m a super hero! And I put on a Viviana Forever look underneath: denim shorts by Zara and a denim shirt by Current Elliot. Denim on denim saves everything. It’s my medicine.

JJ: You need to go hang out in Berkeley, CA. Or on a farm. This is my dream dress—a long, gentle A-line shaped dress with a fabulous print. I would wear it every day of my life if I could.

VV:  You look like a desperate housewife and you’re covering your face because you just killed your husband to sleep with your boyfriend.

JJ:  It has nothing to do with murdering anyone.  It’s the perfect island beach outfit!! It’s calling out to Capri or Positano. The straw bag, the Alvaro copper colored flip-flops (which I wear every weekend) and straw hat are my must- have accessories.

VV: Will you really walk around in a hat that big?

JJ: Totally. Why do you think I’m so white? You’re as tan as Valentino so you have no idea about stuff like this.
