Confederacy

I was so unsatisfied with the various Best Dressed of the Decade lists I’ve been seeing I decided to make my own. I based the list on mostly memory – outfits that had stood in my mind through the years, that I had gone out and tried to recreate for myself in some way or if I had torn the photo of the outfit out of a magazine or dragged it onto my desktop to save for later inspiration. In choosing, I kept in mind the entire look – from hair & makeup to accessories to the right tan (or lack thereof). I kept in mind the relevance of the outfit based on the time and event that it was worn to – whether it captured a moment in time, a moment in fashion, or as some sort of subtle statement on the part of the particular wearer. And since it broke my heart to narrow it down to just 100, we said what the heck, its our list and we make the rules – so 105 it is! Can’t wait to see what everyone will wear this decade!!
