Best costume for the day.


What is your favorite outfit of Edie's?

Mine might be the 'staunch woman' costume: camel trench dress with the tiffany blue terrycloth head wrap... and of course a fabulous diamond broach to top it off.

Love it. My favorite would be her dancing outfit (black leotard with long sleeves, white shoes, with red and blue burka).

I loved that comment!

I like the weird puffy red skirt (upside down perhaps?) she wore in the second half of the movie...

My favorite outfit is actually Big Edie's...her yellow turtleneck tied around her torso like a tube top.

Snoopy, I laughed my head off at that costume! Then Big Edie called it her "bathing suit" and I really lost it!

AHHAAAHAH ME too!!!

When she stood up, she like looked down at her outfit saying "OH MY bathing suit is going to come off"

UHH because it's a sweater tied around you!! HAHAHHA I LOVE HER!!!

Little Edie is truly a fashion innovator and I wouldn't be surprised if some designer does a whole show based on her looks if it hasn't already been done. She is a real cult fashion icon. Love her so much.

Ah, Edie.... she really was a genius! If you ...um... outgrow your skirts, just turn them upside down and make a fashion statement!

When I was going through a major growth spurt in the 6th grade, all my pants became too short so I would just roll them up to my knees.

...a signature to be named later.

She looked like she was just off the boat.
