Ever since I saw the Jean Paul Gaultier exhibit in San Francisco I wanted one of his designs. Today I'm wearing his devil horned wool beanie I got from the exhibit.

Just to be "devil's advocate" on your devil horned beanie day, umm this dress has a huge tattoo across the @ss! Are you interested in emphasizing your rear view? I am, I love outfits that make my rear view look bigger -- I live in Philly after all -- but I know not everybody does!!

PS - can we see your beanie?

I really like this a lot - a great mix of "tough" and pretty . And I didn't get the "lower back tattoo" association until I saw modgrl's post I would be more concerned that it would be see-through, but if were opaque enough, I would definitely wear it!

Here's my beanie. I wish it was a bit bigger to cover my ears.

ETA I don't mind the rear view on the dress.

I can see you wearing that for sure....and it's actually not as much as I expected it to cost.

I loooove that beanie.

But I'm not in love with that dress because of the nude color. From afar it kind of just looks like the model has a super hairy chest and back.

i love the concept of the dress. i think the execution is lacking. the tattoos don't have design clarity and look more like a mishmash. i'm fine with the placement, but he could have done more with the tattoo concept.

I like the print on this one a lot better, even though I get that it's more than twice the price: http://www.neimanmarcus.com/p/.....0Like%20RR

yesssss...maryk's linked dress gets the concept right. that would look great printed on the sleeveless dress curving around the front to back so the fish appears to be swimming.

eta...ok this is cliche but would really work the tattoo concept.

What Rae said cracked me up, but I'd have to see it on in person to tell if it gives a "hairy" effect. I love the hemline. If you're wearing such a bodycon dress, I figure you're okay calling attention to your backside with the print, but the placement of the print on the front seems odd to me - right up to the trim around the neckline, but it stops far above the hem.

I also really like the Koi print one that Mary K. posted.

ETA - the beanie = awesome.

Love the beanie! And I actually love the dress - the black trim keeps the soul-suckage out of the picture. I do not need to wearing anything "second skin" right now though....
