For Sale: Dark + Dawn hinged brace ring

As Givenchy‘s SS13 line proves, the future looks as though you just left the hospital with a neck injury. No shade, I love it but really though. When I first saw the gold and plexiglass choker, I missed the plexiglass entirely and thought it was a golden neck brace. Now that leather harnesses are sub-mainstream accessories, can we look forward to the social fetishization of medical jewelry as well? I volunteer the reality of “yes”, and I’ll back it up with this beautiful Dark + Dawn hinged brace ring. $250.
