Earlier this week on her brand new podcast What would Dolly doshe opened up about her often bizarre outfits and said she was encouraged to tone things down.
‘I didn’t like wearing clothes that someone else would wear and that would have been in good taste. But I had no taste,” she said.
Dolly clarified, “Not in that regard. My taste was all about what I felt comfortable in, which I think is fashionable anyway. If you feel comfortable in your own skin, in what you wear or in your own clothes, there’s a lot to be said about that.’
Her view is that “if you feel comfortable with yourself, you can project a certain, you know, aura, a certain essence.”
