Mmm Mmm Good!
Off all the online retail partnerships, this might be the kookiest:
Yoox.com - a discount designer site - just launched a microsite with FIT, the Fashion Institute of Technology.
Celebrating the best of American fashion, the internet store has a stash of designer vintage fashion, including something truly astonishing -
The Campbell’s Soup dress designed by Andy Warhol, as worn by Edie Sedgwick.
Yoox is selling the sheath in a size medium - for $4,500.
Considering there’s a copy of the dress in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, it’s probably a fair price -
But don’t you want to buy a plain sheath dress, get a silk screen printing party together, and make it yourself?
Admire it - or try and copy its pattern - here.
