Dorinda Medley Gives a Shopping Philosophy Lesson at Bergdorf Goodman

Dorinda Medley doesn’t go to therapy; instead, she says, “I go to Bergdorfs.”

Welcome to Shopping With Vogue, a series in which we sift through a fashion lover’s favorite store. For this edition, we shop with the former star of The Real Housewives of New York and now author of Make It Nice, Dorinda Medley a.k.a @dorindamedley for accessories at Bergdorf Goodman.

Dorinda Medley doesn’t go to therapy; instead, she says, “I go to Bergdorfs.” Of course, she would say something like this. Those one-liners made Dorinda a breakout star on The Real Housewives of New York. Her biting wit made her the perfect character for the catty, Champagne-funneling franchise, which she was on for six seasons.

But Dorinda is different, clothing-wise, from the rest of the cast. Don’t get her wrong, she likes those tight-fitting pieces from Alaïa and Hervé Leger as much as the rest of them, but she’s also known to wear traffic-stopping Missoni prints or a fully crocheted look by Ashish. Her outré style sense has helped her transcend the bitchy banter of the Housewives planet and become a cult-beloved fashion plate. For those who don’t know (Dorinda loves to tell people), she owned a cashmere company in London during the ’90s and Princess Diana shopped there.
