Want some Rocks with that Dress?

So I've been looking at Neiman's Resort collection and UM what's up with this dress? Normally I like Stella McCartney, but this dress - I just don't get.

It's like a bunch of rocks strangely placed on a dress. What is this pattern? Sure it's creative and different, but where would you wear this? And it looks like it's see through. You have to buy something to wear under it and who wants a dress under another dress - unless you're a slut and don't care and just wear it with nothing :P

Actually, looking at it closer it's fabric balls, not rocks. I don't like them. the only think I like about this is that it's silk.
