MALE MODEL IN A DRESS AND HEELS STRUTS THE CATWALK AT IRIS VAN HERPEN

Posted by Fashion Junior at Large


Iris called the collection Synethesia:
 'A condition in which one type of stimulation evokes the sensation of another'

The show opened with disorientating strobe lights and obscure music, and when the troop of models stalked onto the catwalk wearing shimmering bronze strips of PVC it all felt a bit apocalyptic and sci fi. Like the human race had relocated to Mars and evolved a culture in which gender no longer dictates our sartorial choices. Our bodies are shedding their human form and are slowly morphing into winged creatures and skeletal invertebrates.





What a beautiful show!
