Steely Dan Aja cover


What is that ribbon supposed to be?  It looks like a piece of the US flag.  Is that what it's supposed to be or something else? I never understood it.  I see the profile of the face of the Japanese model, though.

@aewarren If it was that obvious, I wouldn't have posted this.  On the album cover, all I see is a whole lot of black.  I don't see a black robe at all.  After @theflattire posted the FB link, it is now clear to me, since I see the robe against a white background.   Didn't think this would turn into an "obvious" fiasco referring to nationalism and citing statutes.  UGgghhhhghgghhg

I see the lady’s partial face profile, and what looks like a ribbon or something. I can’t make it out. I wish I could see the partially open robe, but I don’t. I just don’t get what those "lines" are. Cloth? flag? Ribbon?  I don't see blue anywhere, just a whole lotta black.
