Having previously posted about my desire for a chain or harness type accessory to layer over clothes I was excited to spot this one on the Norwegian Wood etsy store. Created by Angie Montreal - she of Susie Bubble caged skirt fame - it's probably my favourite example of these layering pieces as I love the contrast between the thick black zips and the draping chains.

The chain is modelled here by Michelle Yue who commissioned Angie to make it. Her chictopia post proves how truly versatile it is.
Being blessed/cursed (depending on your view) in the chest department I don't think bisecting each boob with a chain would really work for me, but I'm considering contacting Angie about a modified version... or possibly a caged skirt. Even with the sterling/dollar exchange rate not what it was, both are is still immensely affordable. And it's great how the rest of us can now benefit from Susie and Michelle (and of course Angie's) amazing ideas.

Thank You!!! I was hoping I didn't have to DIY this. YAY!
Ooo, I like this look. It works. :]
It´s very original
i saw that on angie's etsy shop too. it's marvy - but i get you on the disecting boob part hahaha. would be more appropriate if one is less endowed
This looks incredible! What a great idea.
That is awsome! I might contact Angie aswell to design a slightly different kind of model.. That harness sure is pure bliss.

Michelle and Angie are both geniuses.
Angie has a new Harness on her Etsy shop that might work for you, since it doesn't dissect the boobs as this one might. She was wearing one over a lovely floral vintage blouse when I saw her the other night, and the hard/soft contrast was just awesome!
