I just love this idea--very inspired and inspiring. I'd love to try it too, but as a "professional" person in a not-so-creative industry, I just wonder how it could happen. Any ideas?

This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen (at least as far as clothes go). I would never think there were this many ways to style a single dress.

^^Jessica - the past few weeks have been rainy and in the low-70s. atypical since it's usually hot at this point.

you work that doiley! (let me see if i can contribute something knotty to your efforts!)

Is this a deliberate or accidental ripoff of the Brown Dress project (littlebrowndress.com)? Personally I'm more impressed with her effort, since she didn't make 7 identical brown dresses; but whatever.

This is definitely the best look of June! What an awesome project.

HW, I found out about the littlebrowndress project last week through an article by Kottke. I am aware that this is not a new concept and that many have done similar projects before. This is simply my interpretation.

I wore the same skirt for 7 days for a story I wrote this spring. The one thing I know for sure....you are going to have a serious aversion to having your photo taken. Aside from that, you look amazing and what a great effort/idea! Diva, Daily Crave

Love the colors together, and those shoes are amazing! They really give the outfit a classy yet creative look. :)

anne tagged this cute.. but a doily?
I like the creativity, but doilies belong on old ladies' nightstands.

HW, I had a look at that browndress project after your post. Got there first, yes, but not a patch, mate, not a patch. Let's talk panache, not precedence.

love this idea-have just tuned in and checked out all your looks-LOVE 1June and 9June best so far! you find some great stuff on ebay! how many of the same dresses do you have on rotation? it is not just the one is it??
Posted 1434 days ago.
sorry...disregard my last question in previous post - just read your blog and the section "whats this all about". 7 dresses on rotation...

I'm sure your idea of sustainable fashin is great, but don't you still have to get other piece of clothes to make your uniform dress a uniqueness from previous days? All after all, is it really a sustainable fashion at the end of your 365 days?

I love the collar with it and the top underneath with those very neat puff sleeves.
Posted 1434 days ago.
Touché, Britwatch! HW is missing the whole point of this project -- raising funds for children in need. This isn't a competition, it's philanthropy with a really fun angle, not to mention tons of effort.

Love the blouse under the dress. I'd wear this to the office. :)

"I would never think there were this many ways to style a single dress." -- Umm, but she's not really just wearing a single dress. She's wearing a single dress with lots and lots of other stuff, including other dresses, pants, and shirts. Take away the dress and she still has lots of different outfits. I wonder how much all the shoes, tights, scarves and blouses cost?

very nice - I like the combination with the shirt and shoes. Congratulations with the site, great idea!
Posted 1408 days ago.
The red and black combo is killer. The tights are a burgundy-brown? It surprises me, and it really works. For me it's a great fall look.. but those few weeks in June were so rainy, it may as well have been a different season.
