    At least SOME of these remind me of past centuries where men wore tunics...and, hey, how come some male models are allowed to be OLDER THAN 15??? (I DID see white hair, I DID! )

    "What were they thinking" is pretty much the pat reacting to "couture" shows. Thankfully, most of these items - for men and for women - are never meant to be worn by ordinary people, the designers are pushing the envelope and getting a reaction. The ready-to-wear stuff never makes headlines!

    And, once you look for it, many of the male models look pretty darned undernourished - anorexia is not unheard of in men, just less publicized.

    Most runway stuff in general to me is hideous. Just another form of "art", because no one would seriously ever wear any of that stuff off the runway (for the most part, anyway).

    Exactly. I'll call it Fugly Sheek. :P

    BUT, I would wear some aspects of those outfits.
    Day 1:
    pink shoes
    greenish plaid jacket

    Day 2:
    pink sparkly jacket
    sparkly rainbow shorts
    orange shoes

    Well, day 1 wasn't quite as bad. I guess by day 2 they were dragging designers (?) off the street.

    When the first picture of Day 2 popped open on my screen, I just BURST out laughing! OMG, that was SO not what I was expecting!

    I don't know ANYONE ... male, female, straight, gay ... who would EVER wear anything remotely close to most of those costumes. Wow.

    Did you notice the two pictures of the designers themselves though? They are both dressed like totally normal men you would meet on the street.
