Can someone please explain this to me! WTF is this supposed to be?

[Up2Late]

More at the links below. I just want to know, What is this supposed to be? I this something that a Fashion designer seriously expects women to ware, or is this just the first sign of a Fashion Designer who has run out of ideas? Or just a fashion designer showing the first signs of insanity?

4. Looks like something by Leigh Bowery to me.

Not a fashion designer as such, more a conceptual artist.

5. couture has no explanation...

it's just usually stupid, imo. looks like they got some hats stuck in their pants parts.

[SOteric]

6. I'd be intrigued

to know if anyone's actually coughed up some bucks for one of those.

7. It's Art.

Really.

No different than a Rodin really, just done in the guise of fashion.

11. Sounds logical. Is that really how they explain or justify this sort...

...of thing, or are you just taking a guess?

12. Fashion shows such as this aren't about presenting clothing to actually

literally wear.

It's about presenting the designer's vision, attracting attention and setting a standard.

It's a marketing means.

The shows in Milan, Paris and NY aren't necessarily about actual clothing that gets worn in real life, but about presenting the artists' vision and setting up color palettes, hemlines, shoulders, sleeves, necklines and trends for the season.

It used to be that the mannequins wore clothing that could be purchased, now it's representative and a marketing tool.

It's performance art to get your attention, all in good fun!

8. Wilm a Flintstone after jumping into a vat of tomato juice?

[Seabiscuit]

14. Could it be.... the latest Elephant Woman look?

[A HERETIC I AM]

15. I have an outfit just like that. I wear it while i mow the lawn.

It rides up in the crotch though.

And my dog won't talk to me.

16. So that's what it looks like when a supermodel goes off her diet. :P n/t

:crazy:

18. the newest army uniform supplied by the D.O.D.

...it will repel all bio-hazards and bullets. Enemy soldiers will be too disgusted to shoot at anyone wearing the new uniforms! Provided by Halliburton in a no bid contract, this new uniform will only cost the modern soldier a paltry $2000 each. Of course this cost will be deducted from the soldiers pay. :patriot:
