The best products come out of necessity. For that reason I'm actually surprised I didn't invent the Twelve Ways dress myself. When I stumbled across it online I actually yelled out loud. It was something like "No....NO WAY!!! OMG YESSSSS." Very poetic, I know.
Think about it. When you live out of one 60-liter backpack for a year you can only pack an extremely limited number of items. Then when you are done packing you unzip and leave half of those items at home. When you carry it all on your back suddenly the definition of necessary changes.
That's why I think this product is so smart. You have the ability to carry with you 3 tops, 4 dresses and 5 skirts all in one. Then you can mix and match with the other items you carry to create an exponential number of outfit options.
You have the option of black, orange (which looks red to me) and lime. You also have the choice of the elegant fabric or a casual one. When I reached out to my friends at Twelve Ways they sent me the black one to check out with the advice that it will show less road dirt. I also opted for the fancy fabric but I'll probably buy one of the other colors with the casual fabric too. They even have a Pinterest Page set up to give you inspiration for ways to wear your multi-purpose dress.
