Viktor & Rolf Turn Heads with Eye-Catching topsy-turvy gowns at Paris Fashion Week
Paris Fashion Week has always been known for its trendsetting and boundary-pushing designs, but the latest collection from Viktor & Rolf has taken trends to a new level. The Dutch design duo sent models down the runway wearing topsy-turvy dresses that turned traditional fashion on its head. Let’s take a closer look at these unique pieces and how they change the fashion landscape.
One model walked with an entirely upside-down dress, the hemline hiding her face and her legs protruding from the sweetheart neckline. At the same time, other gowns were worn horizontally or on a diagonal, displaying neutral-colored corset undergarments. Each outfit defied gravity in the wacky display, which was an engineering marvel.
Images from the show were quickly spread across social media, with people calling the idea “ insane” and “extraordinary.”
The Inspiration Behind the Collection
