the perfect party dress

my roommate lenora jane and i stopped by a sample sale at a loft in soho today for a designer named virgina craddock (the talent behind the fashion line revival). her spring 2009 line is the perfect combination between flirty (the occasional ruffle and flowered print) and modern-chic (form-fitting silhouettes with utilitarian zippers). after trying on several designs, each of us walked away with what we considered to be "the perfect party dress." the one i bought (below) is from revival's fall 2008 line. i didn't have a particular occasion in mind when i bought the dress, but i figured i might just have to make one up. can't wait to don my harlequin gem!
