“Assent -- and you are sane -- , demur -- you're straightway dangerous -- , and handled with a Chain.” - Emily Dickinson

Though it reminds me of the kind of protective garments worn by knights of yore when they were getting ready for a little pillaging or dragon slaying...and I find the party-ish styling of the images that I found extremely off-putting...there's something appealing about Haute Hippies ring dress. I think it's because I imagine it worn for wandering aimlessly around on a warm summer's day...with a wife-beater underneath...some beaten-up ankle boots...

    Agreed - and the way you describe styling it appeals WAY more than the black tights and shoes in the photo.

  2. I saw this in person the other day. It is one cool dress, but quite heavy...almost a glam kind of chain mail.

    This is excellent - I love that it manages to mix sequins AND chain mail, somehow!
