Singer Ciara showed off her curvaceous figure at the Costume Institute Gala at the Met last night in a floor-length two-tone Pucci gown.
The black-and-white number Ciara wore received mixed reviews from the fashion blogosphere, but I like how the long-sleeved dress covers Ciara's goodies, only to reveal her entire back once she turns around.
Implications - Consumers often look to celebrities for style suggestions because they have the luxury of purchasing expensive, high-end apparel. Corporations may satiate consumer desire for fashion tips by offering consultation services at a reasonable price.
