MEL OTTENBERG: What do we have to say about the Emporio Armani show? The Armani feeling is a thing right now.
DARA: Let’s scroll back.
OTTENBERG: I think you would look great in the finale look, Dara.
DARA: Oh, yeah. I liked that. Oh, Mr. Armani came out. See that, I love to see the people out.
OTTENBERG: He’s 89. Kinda hot. Okay, people in the snow.
DARA: Snow is trending because I saw another show with snow and umbrellas today. Isn’t that crazy? I did love the finale of the snow with the umbrellas with the evening gowns. That was very sweet and fun.
OTTENBERG: Oh, look at her. That’s a perfect evening gown. But wait, hold on.
DARA: The big one’s good.
OTTENBERG: Here it is, the stars and the moon.
DARA: I would do the stars and the moon.
OTTENBERG: What would you wear her with? Black tights?
DARA: Yeah, just tights, some panties, and a heel. A pump.
OTTENBERG: I think that that top is really good too.
DARA: Or jeans. Jeans and like, a hot shoe. Okay, now this look. Where’s she going?
DARA: Where is she going? Where is she fucking going? It was very cosmic, very mystic. There was a moon motif, stars.
OTTENBERG: Cosmic-mystic.
DARA: Kind of astrological glam. I saw you filming the fuck out of it.
OTTENBERG: Moving on, I liked the Matrix Diva.
DARA: That one I loved, actually.
OTTENBERG: Okay, this one, It’s a grayish khaki with a top. A very Armani top.
DARA: Baggy with the big cuffs and the collar.
OTTENBERG: It’s just giving Armani. It’s giving me 1981. We are in the street, shooting with Arthur Elgort. That’s what’s it’s giving me. I wouldn’t even mind a shoulder pad, to be honest. I’m into a shoulder pad.
DARA: I never say no to a shoulder pad.
OTTENBERG: that’s a really nice jacket, that double-breasted blazer.
DARA: What do you think about a girl who’s wearing a beret? Do you like a girl who wears a beret?
OTTENBERG: I liked the proportion of these berets, because it’s strong. But Emily fucked me on the beret.
DARA: Emily in Paris.
OTTENBERG: And good for her, because you know what? No one was wearing berets in Paris ever before Emily.
DARA: She’s a style trendsetter.
OTTENBERG: A style trendsetter, just like you said. And now you go to Paris and you see girls dressing like Emily and wearing berets.
