Fashion Week may set the trends… but not everything shown on the runways is likely to catch on.
Throughout September, designers have taken to the catwalks of New York, Milan, London and Paris to dazzle and wow spectators.
Yet again, this season has pushed the boundaries of what we call ‘fashion’, from dresses created out of plaited hair to condom gloves, designs have tested the limits of insane style.
Other designs included huge fur boots that purposely sent models tripping head over heels in Milan, whilst in London Christopher Kane experimented with cross sections of human anatomy.
