Urban Outfitters describe this top as "Evil Genius". The Fashion Police just want to know why. And also: who. Who is the 'Evil Genius' of whom Urban Outfitters speak? Why did he or she design a tunic with a hammock in the back? What's it for? Is it so models can carry their young to photo shoots? Is it for storing food, like a hamster does in its cheeks? Or is there another, more sinister reason for it?
We're stumped. We need your help, readers, to solve the Mystery of the Evil Genius top. Tell us: what's it for? And would you buy it?
We, meanwhile, are off to add this Evil Genius character to our "Wanted" list. (And we don't mean that in a good way.) Well, you can never be too careful…
I’m usually crap at 3-D/spatial-awareness tests, but I’ve just had a bit of a brainwave over the above garment.
What if the drooping back piece was pulled up and forwards, over the model’s head: then it would transform into the t-shirt as you see in the photo on the right, but with an additional draped cowl feature down the front.
Nothing Evil Genius about it though, more like Left Unfinished at the Factory. Unless it is a tie-in with the “Transformers” movie sequel.

What’s wrong with it? They’re all the rage among carriage horses.
*Gasp*
It’s a shoplifter’s shirt! The sneaky owner of the shirt slips merchandise into the pocket! Shame Shame!
And even the horses look awful wearing them… maybe it’s for enhancing tiny butts?
And here I was thinking that it looked pretty decent from the front.
It almost looks like the quintessential ginormous villain collar, something of value in Disney movies only, turned upside down and made floppy.
And turning upside down and making floppy does not really lead to good fashion.
The ‘evilness’ comes from tricking women into buying something that looks like a loaded onesie from the back. ‘Genius?’ Haven’t got a clue.
It’s like a baby carrier for a teen mom
I’m guessing the back can be pulled up to make a hood. What with being a cowl and all…
Can you use it as a hood? like the Emperor’s conqubine or something?
