That Girl!

August 27, 2012

I saw this dress and immediately thought ‘That Girl!’ (The 1960s sitcom.) I could see Marlo Thomas‘ character, Anne Marie, wearing this dress. It may be the 1980’s does the 1960’s, but it is so fitting!

Not to mention, my next thought–which was of this painting:

Panting by Piet Mondrian

Which is thoroughly uninspiring to me as a painting, but makes a great dress!

I imagine Anne Marie running along a street in Manhattan, with the New York City skyline behind her and this dress billowing out around her. Exactly like the ‘That Girl’ intro.

This dress is that dress, this girl is that girl and I’m that girl!
