Feeling Fishy

It's March, my favorite month of the year and also my birthday month. Like many born in March (and late February), I am a Pisces. The astrological symbol for Pisces is two fish swimming in opposite directions, so it is quite appropriate then that fish scales are one of my favorite design motifs.

Though seven years have passed this dress looks as enchanting as ever. Proof that fish scales have staying power! Need more? How about Angelica Houston's Oscar Dress from 1975.

Gorgeous right? I would wear this dress right now, if I could.
