Lot Essay

During her cerulean monologue—fashion’s favorite sermon, even if Oscar de la Renta did not, in fact, send out cerulean ball gowns in 2003—Miranda wears a spangly, gold medallion–embellished Bill Blass jacket so good it nearly steals the scene. It appeared as part of a suit on Bill Blass’s fall 2004 runway during Michaele Vollbracht’s underrated tenure. (Indeed, Patricia Field’s decision to put Miranda in late-period Blass, rather than some obvious European power brand, feels deliciously knowing.)
This is not merely a plea for a jacket comeback. It is a plea for Bill Blass.
