Never mind that the last time I bought something at Forever 21, the glued-on sequins all started falling off in the middle of a business meeting, leaving a sequin trail as I left the board room. And let's forget about the fact that Forever 21 is stock full of synthetic fibers and so-low-they're-scary prices... Regardless of all this, in theory and design, I am in absolute adoration of their new Twelve by Twelve collection! This is perhaps the chicest looking "fashion democratization" collection yet, with looks like "Bittersweet Ballet" and "Forties Paris" created in a pallette of metallic and dusky greys and charcoals, purpley-blues, and Poutmore's favorite, black. At prices around $40-60, I can almost convince myself it's ethical to buy one of these fabulous pieces....hey, that may be a lot of polyester, but at least these sequins are sewn on !!
