Francis Graffiti Dress Plus Tights

September 30, 2009 by WendyB

I had a fabulous time tonight with my gorgeous friends Shari and Ashley at Christian Francis Roth‘s studio. But I consumed so much Champagne that I totally forgot to take pictures, even though the ladies looked awesome in his clothes! I hope they will humor me by sending me some photos of their purchases. In the meantime, I thought it was worthwhile to take a self-portrait of my favorite Francis graffiti dress because I wore it with tights for the first time.

Click me to see the summer look for this dress.

I did a pretty good job matching the tights to the dress, right?

Shari, Ashley and I had dinner at my new favorite restaurant, Marseille. You should check it out if you’re in town.

    I like the look with the tights better…! Not that the summer look is bad, but the tights add something extra to the outfit. Looks great!

    Sophie, the boots are by Jil Sander…I’ll take a better picture of them one of these days. I wanted them desperately and when they were out of my size in NYC, I tracked these down at Harrods. Not personally, I called the store! I can’t remember when this was but I know it was before 2005!

    I love those tights and boots with the dress. The tights really do add an element of Fall, plus they are a perfect shade of blue.

    My captcha word today is “heybaby”–a happy coincidence, since I’m sure you get your share of catcalls with how hawt you look in that dress!!

    P.S. My Francis clothes arrived today and I love, love, love them! They’re a bit loose in the waist and I’m taking them to the tailor to have them nipped in, but as soon as I get them back I’ll take pictures, I promise!

  23. Sally says

    October 1, 2009 at 2:43 pm

    The tights are a perfect match for the dress! I was wondering how you were going to style all your summer dresses this fall. The Jil Sander boots really work.
