inb4 a whole lot of pretentious walls of txt I'll never read

>>6377594

Do I enjoy the five, six month wait between placing an order and receiving my purchases? Not so much, but it's part and parcel of the process.

>>6377596
who the fuck would wear that shit

>>6377606
/fa/ apparently

>>6377607
Apparent to what?

>>6377606

Well, I can't tell what it is, so that's hard to say. That's why you make a showroom appointment after the show.

>>6377621
>Do I enjoy ordering items and wearing them? Yes.

>>6377606

Well, that answer varies depend on what show you're talking about, no?

>>6377606
I would. Step aside, basic bitches.

the shit you're talking about is runway art, it's not fuckin street wear

>>6377707

Well, are we talking about showpieces or ready-to-wear? I'm just confused what OP is trying to talk about.

>>6377719
Does anybody think that the OTP stuff they put on runways look good?

>>6377725

Well, a lot of different designers put out a lot of different stuff, so it's not surprising that some people like some stuff more than they like other stuff is it?

>>6377606
That's sick as hell you plen

>>6377707
>>6377725
>runway art

Gentlemen, please.

>>6377752

I agree that "art" is a misnomer. I think "showpieces" is the right word for it given that they're part of what is, essentially, a performance that's somewhere between a commercial display and a creative presentation.

>>6377725
what stuff are you talking about

>>6377762

Yeah, I'm also confused because OP (and his supporters) haven't really talked about anything. They've just asked questions without being specific.

>cherry pick only the most pics reposted across the internet (see pic)
>"who would wear this"
>living in a flyover state where everybody wears hoodies and baggy stonewash jeans so you can't culturally imagine wearing anything with an ounce of styling or originality

fucking casuals

runway stuff ranges from easily wearable (above) to more conceptual things that a lot of people look at more in terms of idea than things they would wear in full. or incorporating one piece

>>6377759
I agree with you on that one, level headed though open minded.

Many of these creators would express themselves very powerfully through sculpture, but they somewhat prefer the glamour of high fashion.

>>6377762
random colors
things jutting out from the clothes like glaciers
headgear that completely covers the face (unless its a burka or similare)
non-fabric materials used in excess
>>6377769
there is a difference between being creative and wearing a giant purple dome on your head

>>6377818
many things in runway presentations are not meant to be worn or sold but are presented as an artistic / creative display. it's not that hard to understand.

>>6377788
I don't think you can could necessarily translate expression from fashion to clothing. they are different technique-wise, and fashion is unique in that people are wearing what you make, clothes are tailored and cut differently, altering perception

>>6377818
>there is a difference between being creative and wearing a giant purple dome on your head

What would you say is that difference? How do you define what is and isn't creative?

Also, I guess it'd be interesting to know where you're coming from, what clothes you like, what design you like, etc.

What do you define as "random" colors? Many designers have palettes that they use to organize their whole collections. Other designers draw inspiration from specific things that define what colors they'll use.

What are these "glaciers"?

Headgear is kind of subjective, given that it's kind of ridiculous that brides cover themselves in lace veils and shit and we don't blink twice. It's just a form of styling to convey a message or theme on a runway or in a presentation.

Did you have specific examples of non-fabrics used in an "excessive" way?

>>6377818
The runway allows them to take ideas to extremes and be more artistic. you need to understand where the designer is coming from, instead of looking at everything you see in terms of "would I personally wear this." designers will draw from many influences

>>6377860
here for example there's a focus on extreme tailoring, to the point where it morphs the perception of the garment. this also produces effects w/ the patterns and colours

I enjoy high fashion as an art form. I occasionally watch some runway shows.

would I buy it? hell no.

does anybody actually like fine art
does anybody actually like expensive cars
does anybody actually like gourmet food

>>6377960

>>6377582

I would not watch dogs fuck in that.

seems pretty 2 me

high fashion? oh you mean costume design.

>>6378864
This is beyond costume design my friend.

>>6377752
Oh my god I fucking hate you

itt plebs who don't hang art in their home
