winter kimono

Photos: by Karen
Came home from work tonight to find a package containing this floor length kimono sleeve knitted maxi dress that I had ordered. I immediately snapped these shots to show you (hence why it's still a bit wrinkled).
First saw it on Asos.com out of stock (of course). I hit refresh 10 minutes later and one size popped up. I kid you not. I couldn't believe it. You've never seen someone go through the add to cart and check out process so fast.
Click here to see the dress and watch 'view catwalk' to see it in motion. You have to.
NYFW is already over but here's one dress I know I'll wear for their next season. Just add heeled boots and a cape/shawl.
I'll share pics with it on soon. Promise!
