Emily Ratajkowski Wears a Sexy Burlap Dress to Paris Fashion Week

Emily Ratajkowski has been making the rounds this fashion month—she sat front row at Marc Jacob's show in New York sporting some faux bangs, and walked the runway in Milan for Bottega Veneta.

As a permanent fixture in the high-fashion world, the model/actress is always dressed by top designers for appearances— from custom-confections to fresh off-the-runway ensembles. So, when Ratajkowski stepped out for Dior's Spring 2018 runway show in Paris this morning in a modern Victorian-inspired look from Brock Collection, we had our usual reaction, damn, she looks REALLY good.

But we were surprised to learn that Ratajkowski's dress, which features a balconette top and sexy thigh-high slit is actually made from burlap. Yes, burlap, as in the material used to contain a group of potatoes. This is definitely no burlap sack though—this is the sexiest, and likely, most expensive piece of burlap to probably ever exist. Who knew it could be so chic?
