The Negative Space Theory.
Has nothing to do with pessimism and everything to do with looking ahead.
The theory focuses on the space around and between the subject. You see a picture of a vase, but if you focus on the space surrounding the vase, it, too, creates an image (see "Rubin's Vase" optical illusion).
You will have some sophisticated fun with this Sequin Bib-Front Blouse (No. 5432).
You may notice wandering eyes hovering on you a bit longer, trying to suss out your fashion sense. Is the bib on top of the sequin or beneath it? Is this some sort of extraordinary, Italian-style layering that no one knows about? Are you taller?
There are certain things in life that aren't easily placed into conventional spaces. That doesn't mean they're negative; it means they're unusual.
