I've been looking at some "high class" runway fashion lately and the thought struck me, isn't fashion what you wear out day to day really? and what the majority of people wear? Its fashionable to wear headbands that look like bunny ears right now, you know because you see people wearing them, so where did this idea of fashion being abstract coming from? would anyone actually buy the dress above and wear it outside or to dinner? could you even sit down in it?
Honestly i believe the american fashion industry as well as some european one have lost touch with reality. The picture above is from a russian company and i may not know the fashion scene in russia at all but i don't think anyone is wearing anything like that. considering the costs to make high fashion dresses because if all the things done by hand you think they would make something people could actually wear.
I'm glad that high fashion like this isn't that popular though, i would never want to look like a gift wrap gone wrong or C3PO like most of the pictures i see, what audience are these clothes being sold to anyways other than maybe lady ga ga (she's amazing though). i suppose i'm just confused as to why people are designing clothes real people would and could never wear when the whole point of fashion is to wear what everyone else is or look good by your standards.
