Zo·di·ac /ˈzōdēˌak/ noun
- a belt of the heavens within about 8° either side of the ecliptic, including all apparent positions of the sun, moon, and most familiar planets. It is divided into twelve equal divisions or signs (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces).
There are two types of people in this world. One who obsesses over zodiac signs and one who dreads the question, "What's your sign?"
No matter your stance on astrology, the day you were brought into this universe may bring clarity to why you are who you are. And when you add fashion to the mix, there's an added curiosity that lingers as to why you may be obsessed with your favorite dress. The stars have aligned just for you to understand your unique style.
