You want to see some weird ****?

Last summer I was browsing yahoo!japan for Carpe Diem stuff and came across a $50 "poncho". Why not? A week later I opened the package and discovered this:








A four-armed, cotton/metal/silk(?)/linen(?) women's dress. I was...disappointed? I didn't understand it. And so it sat in the back of my closet. Until today.





Oliver Peoples sunglasses
Isabel Benenato hat, knit
KKA pants
Silent scarf, bag
Carpe Diem dress, boots

Long story short this **** is crazy. With some pins you can create some seriously beautiful geometric draping, and the top set of arms can be folded down your back to create this weird cowl collar. I spent at least fifteen minutes in front of the mirror just playing with the thing. Starting to believe some of the SZ hype about Altieri. I could go on and on––it was a very strange and interesting and fun experience––but I won't. I will say that this was a trip faaaaaar outside my comfort zone, and that I think I'm better for it. Now to scrounge the internet for wrap skirts...
