Description

Which dress had the biggest impact on the red carpet: was it Marjan Pejoski's Swan dress (worn by Bjork on the 2001 Oscars ceremony) or Versace's Safety Pin dress (which made Liz Hurley's name)? Which one would fetch the highest bid on eBay today? And in terms of elegance how would you rate one of Diane Von Furstenberg iconic wrap dresses from the 70s against Carrie's Vivienne Westwood wedding dress in Sex in the City? But one must also think about shoes (Louboutin? Manolo Blahnik?) and bags (Gucci? Chanel?) and hats (Philip Treacy and Isabella Blow, of course...) These, along with many similarly vital, questions will be addressed in this game, in which players will be invited to compare iconic fashion items (dresses, shoes, hats, bags, etc.) across a number of imaginative categories. Presented in a simple yet stylish box, this set of forty playing cards will become the ideal gift for anyone interested in fashion, from professionals to students and any younger persons who dream of fashion. Illustrated by Erin Petson, written and researched by Maia Adams.
