Dakota Johnson Reignites Our Love of the Pleated Skirt (Again)
Cutting a swathe through a busy New York street, Dakota Johnson looked all kinds of fabulous in her fancy take on cold-weather dressing. A black coat, sweater and opaques played as the blank canvas for her stand-out pleated metallic Gucci skirt and slingback platforms.
She's joining a line-up of Gucci-clad celebrities that gets longer by the hour, including Sienna Miller toting this ridiculously gorgeous bag last week.
