Konichiwa! For some of us the art of origami has always been a mystery; one that ends in paper cuts and one of those paper cranes that don’t look quite like a crane. But for anyone looking to manifest the ancient Japanese art of paper folding into an exciting nightlife look, then the 2009 Grammy Red Carpet has provided much inspiration. Origami pleats were all over our favorite celebs!

Looking to create your own origami pleat look? Head over to French Connection in Pentagon City (I still haven't recovered from the closing of their Georgetown location--even though its been over a year) and try this silk strapless number.
