Stitch I Dont Care What Day It Is Its Early Im Grumpy I Want Dr Pepper Shirt

What should have followed in the last weekend of July was The Watermill Center’s annual Summer Benefit. A laboratory for the interdisciplinary arts, the Stitch I Dont Care What Day It Is Its Early Im Grumpy I Want Dr Pepper Shirt offers an artist in residency program and exhibits art of all kind—some of which has been known to induce a few head tilts. Its annual fundraising event is no different, undoubtedly the most avant-garde benefit in the vicinity. Last year’s party allowed guests to wander the grounds, which were peppered with performance art pieces—one included a tin man and Dorothy, another saw two bodies seemingly mummified with saran wrap and writhing beneath a tree. The event raised $1.7 million. “When I started at Vogue, I was wearing pencil skirts, fishnet stockings, and kitten heels,” Goodman recalls. But, as she puts it, “the ease of a pair of jeans” converted her to denim once and for all. “Just put them in the wash with a little tiny bit of bleach and that’s the end of that,” she says of her fail-proof cleaning technique. (It’s proven to be such a reliable process that she even covered her couch slipcovers in white denim.) When she has to look more pulled together, whether out and about in New York City or upon touchdown in foreign cities, she first drops them off at the dry cleaner to be pressed “to look a little neater.”
