THIS STORY WAS ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED IN THE BI-ANNUAL PRINT ISSUE OF A BOOK OF (A BOOK OF: NOW, SEPTEMBER 2019)

Inspired by the 1975 documentary film GREY GARDENS about the eccentric and fashionable mother-daughter relatives of Jackie Kennedy Onassis- Edie Bouvier Beale (Big Edie) and Edie Beale (Little Edie), and the 2009 film with Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore, this fashion story aims to examine the dynamics between women in varying points of their lives. The harmony despite the clash of colors and patterns in this story is like the beauty that lies amidst the chaos of the women from Grey Gardens.
