“with its billowy sleeves, embroidered bust, and ribboned shoulder straps, the sheer floor-length dress-which Welch wore with a matching underwear set-completely embodied the whimsical, fairytale aesthetic”

“…to eat a fruit is to know its meaning.”— Fernando Pessoa, A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe
Characters in Russian literature are always eating (or offering) fruit at significant moments. (Gurov in The Lady and the Lapdog eats a slice of watermelon after he and Anna have slept together for the first time; Oblonsky in Anna Karenina is bringing Dolly a large pear when she confronts him with his infidelity.) It is in the blood of Russian storytelling to take note of the fruit.
— Janet Malcolm, Iphigenia in Forest Hills
