I don’t know why but the second I saw this gorgeous Valentino LBD I thought ‘wouldn’t Wendy Davis look amazing in this when she becomes Texas next governor’???  I swear to you that’s exactly what I thought, my mind goes in several different directions and it’s hard for me to keep focus!  I love this Valentino black velvet top with the zipper sleeves… I love seeing zippers on the sleeve…  the skirt part of the dress is a luscious wool fabric.  It’s very clean, it’s very simple, it’s very Valentino…..  Who knows maybe this vintage Valentino dress once belonged to Ann Richards???  It’s possible as I’ve have found out being a professional thrifter for 32 years, anything is possible… As I close up this blog post I’m going to leave you with one of my favorite Ann Richards quotes “After all, Ginger Rogers did everything that Fred Astaire did.  She just did it backwards and in high heels.”  I’m Daniel Troppy your vintage luxury curator!
