clothing gallery > the wrap...

the versatile signature piece of OCELOT, the wrap can be layered, worn as a skirt,

a shawl, a halter dress, a cape.....you can a play with it and make your own style.

The wraps pictured here are all silk chiffon. The wrap may be available in wool as well. There are many different patterns and color combinations.

The shape is a rectangle, with a belt attached. You can work with it on your figure, and come up with new ways to wear it.

below are some of the many ways to wear the wrap.

SKIRT (layered over pants): start by positioning the wrap either center front, on a hip, or shift the center design, and play around with how the design falls. Pull one side taut across the body, and wrap the other side over, pulling taut and angling down to create a nice line. You may want to play with where you wear the wrap, on your high waist, low waist, hip, etc.. Twisting the belts adds a nice detail. The wrap looks great over the wide leg 'Nani' pant, or over trousers or jeans.

HALTER DRESS : start with the center front design above the bust, and wrap the belt around the back and bring back to the front, wrapping through armscythe, and over shoulders, tyeing behind the neck.

CROSSING CAPE: start with the center of the wrap behind the neck, wrapping over the shoulders, and crossing across the bust. Bring the beltsunder the wrap in the back and tie underneath in back.

ONE SHOULDER SHAWL: Start with the center front on one shoulder, and pull the belts to the opposite side, crossing with one side of the wrap over the other. Pull the belts tight and tie under the wrap on the opposite side.

ONE SHOULDER DRAPING: This version is like the last one, but rather than fitting around the body, the belts are tied loosley on the opposite side from the shoulder.
