‘And the coat is by my beloved @manfredthierrymugler f/w 1985. Finding this coat made me so very happy. I’m obsessed with vintage right now. Perhaps because I’m vintage. Lol,’ she added.
LaVerne concluded: ‘I feel like it’s a miracle that I’m still alive. To all my siblings out there, here’s to making it to another day despite all the efforts to keep us from doing so. Stay strong!! Hold on!!!’
