Rachel Pally Gets Skullish, Too


Skulls are the new black. Case in point is yet another young designer getting in on the skull trend--this time, it is Rachel Pally (she's joining the great Alexander McQueen who did a great deal to bring the skull trend to fruition--read more in "Skullish Fashion Gets Back to Bare Bones"). Known for her fluid dresses and tops that wrap the skin in supersoft modal material, Pally has proven that her pieces have style and substance.

Pally's new skull print comes in a versatile obi that can be worn around the waist, in the hair, on the neck, on the wrist... ok, anywhere. Vaguely pirate-like, the print also appears on eighties-inspired leggings, the "Twist Tank," as well as a racer back tank ($88, $124, and $102, respectively). At $53, the obi is your best bet both in terms of price and versatility. All available on ShopBop.com.
