A very interesting thread and I enjoy how it has evolved...although, the closures to the left and right (male/female)--I am not as convinced that it was "intentional" or that it was done specifically to throw tradition to the wind. The mens' shirts are still buttoned according to tradition, are they not? Perhaps, the designer is truly just "going over the top".

Until I read some of the posts from Ali and others, I really have never understood fashion shows. Honestly, I barely understand it anyway. I can't imagine why you would not just show the clothing that you hope to sell...but that's just my lack of fashion understanding.

If the intent is to gain media attention or generate a buzz...then mission success, if you ask me.
