EMILY MATSON: The Best-Dressed Broadcaster.

Feels so shallow, now.

But, I used to message Weatherman John every time I thought Emily’s dress was particularly beautiful on. Mum was a “seamstress” who made gowns and suits for all Erie’s socialites, back in the day, so my eye learned to become attuned to the dress. Emily was always perfectly presented. It was just that simple. In every way, she was impeccable.
