Can You Wear Whimsical Print Dresses? Can I? Can Anyone, Ever?

Can You Wear Whimsical Print Dresses? Can I? Can Anyone, Ever?

I mean “may anyone, ever” but it felt awkward to type, right?

Every time I see a Lisa Perry dress, which is inevitably inspired by some well known artist, I have an immediate impulse to say “Jeff KOONS, lady? I fucking love Jeff Koons!
