Joanne couldn’t accept it.||
If this dress was on any other Manhattan socialite, she wouldn’t bat an eye. But this dress cost seven figurest
Where would Cha

All eyes immediately started ping ponging between the two women []
This was about to get juicy
In high society, especially at such an important event, wearing the saine outfit as someone else was absolutely mortifying! Being caught in a fashion duplicate

the admiration and attention when die heard the comment. Her brow furrowed as she quickly scanned the crowd []
