Shoppers Lose Their Shit Over Kate Middleton's DVF Wrap Dress
LatestYesterday, Kate Middleton stepped out in a lovely blue-and-white DVF wrap dress. If you waited until today to score your own, you’re almost certainly shit out of luck, because it’s now sold out.
According to Go Fug Yourself, it took approximately eight minutes from identification as the “Patrice Printed Cotton Wrap Dress” to its being largely sold out online. It’s now totally unavailable on DVF.com. The New York Daily News called the company’s two Manhattan stores and learned there were only the slimmest of pickins left. One supervisor said they were bombarded the moment they opened:
“A couple of people called and hadn’t even seen it yet which was really weird,” Pavey said. “We sold six at one time which was for stylists who were trying to get them for their clients.”
The rich are different!
Personally, I’m more interested in this beachy number, which is apparently the work of the Australian designer Zimmerman. But it’ll keep until there’s a passable Forever21 knockoff:
