Garments that we may dream of but never sit down in... (http://showstudio.com/collection/iris_van_herpen_paris_haute_couture_a_w_18/image_216649)

Interesting. Love it when the couture shows and art intersect. The garments are so far removed from wearable that the wear ability is not an issue.

Those masks! I wonder how badly they distort the models vision for walking about in the piece.

Truly wearable art. And you're right, no sitting.

I agree Renegade … It is art  … it makes a change though as I find some of the catwalk fashion doesn't really have a purpose, no form or function and certainly not wearable … this at least I find fascinating and beautiful. (In my humble opinion that is)
