glaciers can look like giant blankets, draped across the tops of mountains and down into valleys. when they break off and calve, the sound is like a thunderclap, with the now relatively small icebergs floating away into the rivers they feed. this crop top may not seem like the ideal layer for wearing at the base of a giant piece of ice, but rest assured that whether you wear it in a hot spring at the base of a mountain or layered with high-waisted shorts and tights to an art gallery, you’ll turn heads when you twist your back to reveal its lacy secret.
