What is the point?

*imagine the typical luxury label wh*re customer
some glamourpuss tottering around in impossible platform bondage strappy heels with rhinestones from jimmy choo...loads of make up, fake tan, fat duck-like collagen lips, too much botox and hair stiff as straw from too much bleaching and blow drying....all draped in a long black dress with an assymetrical hem and high collar with one sleeve longer than the other...
EEK!...talk about scarey!!...
...

You certainly conjure up quite a picture!

I won't ask you if you have anyone specific in mind *cough.....Victoria Beckham.....cough*.

Well since starting the thread I've thought about this topic a lot more, and it's great to hear everyone's diverse opinions! Personally I've come to an opinion very similar to Melt's. I don't think its debatable that some of the clothes are basically unwearable...I can't imagine anyone wearing some of dior's origami geisha outfits or Viktor & Rolf's walking beds down the street...even if deconstructed. However I do think such original ideas really do show off the designer's creativity and the amazing skills of those actually making the clothes. It allows the label to stand out from the mundane and generate a lot of attention and publicity. It sparks the imagination and creates a mood that attracts those who want to be associated with that feeling...I'm finding it very difficult to express what I'm thinking here....

I think you express yourself very well.

Desirability is subjective...just like beauty. There are some people out there that adore CDG and wear it just as if it were something as normal as something from H&M. Different designers appeal to different people.

Just my little input.

YEAH!!! YOU SAID ALL
