Bizarre Fashion

We probably have heard the food reality tv show 'Bizarre food"..well the title tells it all, self unexplainable I must say. However, we do know fashion at times can be weird or bizarre as well, depending on how one sees it. For me, of course it is a form of art, a fashion designer telling its stories using their masterpiece (Cloths). Their hand-crafted piece can worth more than one sees it. It is worth much more than that. And that is how some fashion designers remained a legend.

Here are some awesome pieces of what I often called as "Bizarre" pieces, and only some who I've heard of, and those fashion labels which impresses me. Since Chinese New Year mood is still around, I've selected some reddish colour to go along the lines.

Of course, not missing out, Alexander Mcqueen - This was during the Paris Fashion Week. This piece simplifies one word= Art. The symmetry design tells it all. The umbrella on the head, gives me a Japanese feel, a little of fusion art.

Balenciaga spells "Print" for you quite amazingly. They use prints a lot to tell a story on its garment. Although not as bizarre, the top itself, gives a bright wide eye opener.

What more when it comes to authentic, grand and bizarre? The ever imperial 'Christian Lacroix' during the Haute couture fashion show. One look at this piece, it simplifies grand, masterpiece, imperial and goddess-like.

The designer never fails to impress me with the stunning designs and workmanship of his ever great eye to design beyond its limit. This red number spells a long tutu, with very detailed laced-craft top. The designer is none other than Jean Paul Gaultier.

One look on the designers face itself, we can tell his clothes will never be simple and common. John Galliano always has the eye of the wild, weird, crazy and uncommon. He, however, reminds me of  Jack Sparrow in Captains of the Carribean.  When it comes to fashion parades, walkways, fashion weeks, I always look forward to John's collection. Out of the norm. yet, legendary-costume-like garments.

If you have watched fashion shows covered with very traditional, bizarre like head cloths and ethnicity, there is only one you can compare with, KENZO. Kenzo fashion shows are pretty awesome, with its wide range of designs splattered with traditions and ethnic.

The last but not least, Vivienne Westwood. She always have the eye for the different in terms of design and cutting. Although sometimes we can't really tell if its her work, her clothings always give us the element of surprise. 

And for those who loves fashion, one of the many men I looked up to, is none other than Karl Lagerfeld himself. One glance at him, he is the icon to many young and upcoming designers out there.
