Nicolandria is no more. Last week, Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe — fan favorites and finalists from Love Island USA season seven, a couple who made dating-show skeptics believe in romance again — confirmed their breakup after a year of dating. The news hit reality-TV heads and Emily Henry readers partial to a friends-to-lovers arc the hardest. But then came a bright spot: Olandria posted photos over the weekend of herself in a leggy tangerine-colored Tom Ford gown, a revenge dress reassuring fans and the rest of the world that she’s a Girl Who Is Going to Be Okay.
