Gretchen Mol Embraces Lace

"This dress is very sexy but understated," says actress Gretchen Mol. The café au lait beige suggests a second skin—yet this slip of a dress (Monique Lhuillier) doesn't look like lingerie because the lace is denser, more textured (the kind designers now favor). Mol's life currently involves two major roles: mother to 1-year-old Ptolemy ("I liked the sound of it, kind of lyrical, but his middle name is John") and playing a 1970s policewoman on Life on Mars (it's a cop show crossed with a time-travel fantasy).
