First things first: this picture is not exactly news and neither is this dress, both date back to 2011. And yet, it is one of these pictures and one of these dresses which exude something timeless. One of the reasons might be that it is rather a classic black and white picture. Another reason is probably that it features a little black dress, a true wardrobe staple. Most importantly to note, however, is that the photographer behind the lens was Alasdair McLellan and the designer behind the dress no other than Stella McCartney. For me, reason enough to deserve a little place in my archives.
