Debra Messing’s A Bottega Veneta Leather Girl From Head to Toe
Stella “Leatha” From Project Runway Would Love This Look!
Former Will & Grace star Debra Messing recently pooh-poohed rumors that she had dropped stylist Rachel Zoe who has been accused of being too busy with her show, The Rachel Zoe Project, and losing focus when it comes to her first job (and the reason she even has a TV show), styling.
But she might want to consider making a switch after getting decked out in head-to-toe Bottega Veneta—the dress (which looks like a butcher’s apron, yikes!), the shoes, the clutch. How on earth did Rachel talk her into this get-up?
Here’s our imagined conversation:
RACHEL: Debs, we need to do something radical to shake up your image. Now that you’re not on Will & Grace and that other show of yours got canceled, people are going to start wondering why you just randomly show up to things like Phoebe Price.
DEBRA: But I’ve won a Golden Globe! Several in fact. People love me! Remember that time on the show when Will and I . . .
RACHEL: That’s like a zillion seasons ago. Anyway, I have a great idea: a leather dress! I DIE. Sure it’s like 80 degrees outside but you have to suffer for fashion. If I can put up with Taylor, mostly because she scares the bejebbus out of me, you can wear something that looks like Bessie the Cow incarnate.
DEBRA: I don’t know . . .
RACHEL: Come on! You’ll be the next Sarah Jessica Parker. Or Carrie Bradshaw. Whichever. They’ve practically morphed into the same person anyway. The point is that little show she’s on totally doesn’t matter. All people care about is what outfit Patricia Fields wrangles her into, so trust me, wear this and no one will ask what happened to your career. Would I steer you wrong? Get it, “steer?” Ha!
DEBRA: I just have this weird feeling that you’re using me as a walking billboard for season two of your show. These gladiator sandals are super cute but didn’t you just recommend them as “Zoe Picks” on Piperlime? And all this leather is a bit much. Ugh, I look like an entrée at Ruth Chris steak house.
RACHEL: Season? Steak? GOD, I’m sooo hungry. I haven’t eaten solid food in 15 years. You’d look great between two buns with some lettuce, ketchup and tomato . . .
DEBRA: Rachel, why are you looking at me with that carbs-crazed look in your eye? Hey, you BIT me!
ZOE: Oh, sorry about that. Look, here’s the deal. Anne Hathaway is my A-list celebrity now. Hell-o Oscar nominee vs Golden Globes. You do the math. I’m hording all the good stuff for her so it’s this leather dress and the shoes or nothing, m’k. Be sure to tell everyone to watch the second of my show on Bravo at 10pm! But don’t use any of my catchphrases or I’ll edit you out.
