I discovered this dress at Good Sammys in
Geraldton for $30 with the original tag still attached and I found the perfect
opportunity to wear it when I attended WA Ballet’s Alice in Wonderland late
last year. After my first outing to the ballet years ago where I wore
jeans to opening night then shamefully noticed all the people dressed as if
attending a ball, I have always wanted to be one of those lavishly dressed
audience members. They do still let you in wearing jeans, of course, but how
many places anymore do you get the opportunity to be ostentatiously over-dressed?
This dress, with its intricate patterning and all-over dusting of
iridescent glitter was perfect for the magic of an evening ballet at His
Majesty’s Theatre. It also was also an indulgently fitting choice of dress for taking
in the sparkle of city Christmas lights after the ballet!
