The purpose of jewellery is to highlight, draw attention to (or possibly away from), to adorn. This body harness by Duke of Jahan designer Muska Jahan of Houston, Texas, draws the eye to the torso with a web of gold metal chains.

It can be worn by a man or a woman, and adds drama to a plain top worn underneath (though I am guessing some people wear it with nothing underneath). I think it could also be a great way to bring attention to the back, if worn reversed. Available for USD $99.99 plus shipping. If body jewellery isn’t your thing, Duke of Jahan offers more conventional pieces as well.
