Chopova Lowena designers on Skarsgård's carabiner skirt

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA man wore a plaid skirt held up by dozens of carabiners to a movie premiere in Los Angeles, and the designers say the whole thing is about silliness, the New York Times reports.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFolks, point one. The carabiner skirt is listed at one thousand three hundred thirty-two dollars on the brand's website. That's the silliness. Not the skirt.

3. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe price.

4. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPoint two. The look was a custom purple-and-green midi kilt, a black belt with silver hardware, and the carabiners. Dozens.

5. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorCarabiners exist to stop a person falling off a mountain.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe design came from a love of rock climbing.

7. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo this skirt is fully prepared for a cliff, and the carpet at the DGA Theater is flat.

8. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPoint three. His shirt was built from a runway design that originally featured a framed pigeon, a bird stuck forever behind glass.

9. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHe swapped the pigeon for a still of Olivia Colman from Wicker. Same shirt, different face, and the pigeon got fired.

10. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThink about that. Rihanna wore this brand, Dua Lipa wore it, Charli XCX wore it.

11. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorEverybody with a stylist agrees a belt of climbing gear is the new trousers.

12. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAnd here's what they won't tell you. A normal belt holds up your pants.

13. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThis one holds up a conversation, and that conversation costs one thousand three hundred thirty-two dollars.

14. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorVerdict: silly, yes. Cheap, no. Rating, two carabiners out of dozens.

15. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI own a belt with one buckle, and nobody has ever put me in a magazine for it.
