Emporio Armani A-line cabled(?) minidress
Attention All Knitting Pattern Designers: I have seen the future. It is this dress:
It’s from the Emporio Armani Fall 2009 Ready-to-Wear collection and I want it. I want it bad. That being said, I’m not sure how to construct the damn thing. Lookie here at this close up of Anna Arendshorst modeling it:
I thought those swirly things were cables, but apparently they’re braided bands of 1×1 ribbing that are somehow sewn together, with triangles of plain knit fabric filling out the body.
Hot damn. I still want one. I’d knit one long enough to wear in public, or I’d knit a short one like this and wear it with pants. I wonder if it has sleeves or straps, and what they look like. Regardless, I would totally wear the F out of that dress.
Oh, dress. You are so dead sexy. Be mine.
In other, knitting-centric news, I plan to cast on a Liesel bolero later today, in the misguided hopes of finishing it in time for the Lamb’s christening on Sunday. (I have a wearable dress for the occasion, but nothing seasonally-appropriate to wear over it.)
