A Little Bit of Mackie 3/7/11

The other day I was trolling the interwebs when I came across this Mackie Gem!  "Twilight" star Ashley Greene poses in a Studio 54 inspired spread in the Fall/Winter 2009 issue of "French Revue de Modes" magazine.  It's always nice to see Mackie prominently featured as the #1 gown in a fashion spread.  How awesome is this dress by the way?!  I love the subtle colored stripe paired with the bugle beads and how they chose to style it.  The dress is vintage and came from Frock NYC.
Bob Mackie could easily reissue this dress.  Put in a thinner shoulder pad while cutting it to just above the knee and it would be flying off the racks!  I could see fashionistas coast to coast wearing this dress anytime they would want to be noticed, or envied.  Drinks with the ladies, at the club, hosting a cocktail hour or any other high class occasion.  This dress is spectacular.  Can't wait to see it in Barney's.
