So now I can see it with no fear! And I love that they actually used Lang's vest.

I will look forward to seeing what Tom Ford does and how 'OP' he goes. I am sometimes surprised what I find in the early 60s Vogue magazines which often looks more mid 60s in style. Do you remember I got that Vera Butterfly print dress from you which is 1962 and I would have thought 1965/66 had you not found that Vogue advert for Vera. Anyway, can't wait to see it!

I haven't seen the film yet, but I heard an interview with Tom Ford on NPR. The film takes place in 1962, but Ford chose to dress Julianne Moore's character in Op Art fashions because he wanted to portray her as on the edge of fashion and felt she would be a muse of a designer like Rudi Gernreich. Graphic op-art inspired fashion in 1962? I'm not buying it. What do you think? Can’t wait to hear your take on “A Single Man”.
