The Sarong Black

Packed this for a beach trip and ended up wearing it four different ways — as a skirt, a dress, even tied as a top. The 150x115cm size gives you plenty of fabric to work with, and the finished edges mean it doesn't fray after washing.

Packed this for a week in Greece and wore it as a skirt, a dress, and a beach cover-up. The 150x115cm size is generous enough to actually wrap and tie without feeling skimpy. Edges are finished cleanly too, no fraying after several washes.

The rayon silk blend feels way softer than I expected for the price, and it packs down to nothing in my carry-on. Wore it as a beach cover-up then tied it as a skirt for dinner, and the finished edges still look clean after two washes.
