    Real talk

    The people who don't get Serena are the ones who want to be smelled across the room. This isn't that. Serena is for the wearer who wants someone to lean in and ask 'what are you wearing'.Serena
    Gigi doesn't ask permission. It arrives loud and stays longer than you planned. The opening will split the room, but that's the point. Either you want to be remembered or you don't.Gigi
