The first Loft store, God’s gift to underpaid working women, opened in 1996, probably just around the time of Katie’s Bat Mitzvah. If the green dress she wore that day hadn’t been so darn cute, this post’s author would be telling Katie that she should have gone to the then-brand-new ATL in Austin, TX to spruce up her tween wardrobe.
On this commemorative Dochen birthday, Katie's celebration of a quarter of a century (an end to young-adulthood!), our honoree will don a spectacular Ann Taylor Loft creation. The store itself won't celebrate its own quarter centennial for another 13 years, by which time Miss Dochen will be a mere two years away from being Over the Hill. But that's for another blog.
