Now that I'm done with sale scavenging, I'm all about my putting my Fall wardrobe together. I decided I must wear Derek Lam for my birthday this month, it's a big one and only the sexiest and chicest of dresses will do. I love the gray matte jersey dress ($1,390) with the taupe matte calfskin rock star belt ($590) but when I discussed it with Derek, he said I should wear the matte white jersey dress ($1,790). I totally can not make up my mind! So I'm turning to you once again to help me out here. The two dress choices are above, keeping in mind I look really good in gray :) So tell me, what should I do? Wear the gray chic jersey dress or the white hot draped goddess dress?
Sienna Miller was seen recently rocking one of Derek's hottest fall styles. The beaded top is $1990.00 and the silk jersey twist skirt: $790.00. The must have accessory this season is a kick ass belt, this one is $490.00. Call Wayne 212-966-1616 at the Derek Lam boutique or email him to get the fabulous Fall items that are slowly trickling in!!!
both such beautiful dresses...but i vote for the white. The gray is so pretty, but since this is YOUR big birthday, you have to stand out! I bet no one else will show up to your party wearing a white dress...and think how hot will it look with chunky gold jewelry!!let us know what you decide and post pics!
grey all the way! i dont think the white will make your porcelain skin pop as much..unless you tanned in cali..plus..birthday must equal bubbly, and the white seems more prone to wardrobe malfunctions =)..although you really cant go wrong with either..
I think gray is the better option for you. The white is stunning but there is so much fabric, I don't know how that will drape. The gray is hot and the belt is fierce.
Girls! The dresses have arrived and they are both fabulous!!!!
I am keeping both and wearing the gray to my birthday lunch with girlfriends and the white that night to Air Supply at the Symphony with my hubby! So problem solved :)
the white is amazing and looks much better on me than the model. Seriously, you need curves to fill this dress out!!!
Thanks for all the support !!
I will be continuing my bday celebrations in NYC, LA and Vegas throughout the year. Hey this is a big birthday and will take all year for me to accept it ;)

The grey is gorgeous, but for a big birthday, the white is more fabulous.
