Dress to match your perfume.

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

Is it possible to dress to match a scent? The scent of your perfume to be exact.  Well at the release event, Faith Hill’s stylist managed for her to match the look of her new perfume, ‘Faith Hill Parfums’ (call the CLIO judges now for that creative name).

I realize the tone in which I’m writing this sounds as thought I’m making fun of her for using the glass bottle of romance juice as a fashion muse… but on the contrary, I actually love the look here.  Her fair complexion and softer features work well with the light pink color of the dress.  The reflective satin or silk material is complimented by her now blond again hair (this wouldn’t be nearly as striking if she were still brunette) and her huge white smile.  I’m glad she wore the jewelry to put some girly charm into a neckline that is otherwise masculine, in cut and collar.

As for the matchy matchy with the eau de toilette, with which she no doubt posed for pictures all night… I think she could have gone over the top and had a great time with it.  The black labeling on the perfume and black ribbon could have influenced her to do a dark hat, or at least a headband or ribbon in her hair.  Maybe a black sash waistband/belt around the high-waisted dress? With the glamor and old world grace of perfume marketing in general, I think playing it up in an Audrey Hepburn sort of way could have suited her well.  Here, you be the judge…

Better? OR Worse? What do you think?
