"In a world of fast fashion, Olga Gintchin is a one-woman counterculture
phenomenon, in understated gray.

The other Highlands Ranch moms on the soccer field probably didn’t notice.
Fellow shoppers at the King Soopers most certainly did not. Some of her
coworkers eventually caught on, but most likely because Gintchin told them.

For 100 days in a row, she wore the same dress.

The dark-gray wool dress is plain, functional and practical, and each day,
Gintchin jazzed it up with colorful extras and accessories. A green cardigan. A
coat with multicolor stripes. A $13 thrifted maroon leather jacket. Leggings,
scarves, belts. Sometimes, a blouse underneath the sleeveless dress, which she
could turn backward when she wanted a V-neck instead of a scoop neck."
