What Do You Think Of these Fashion Show Designs For Men?

Runway shows often get a bad rap for their costumey looks, overly theatrical presentations and sometimes general weirdness. As a result – and because of the buzz around shows of this ilk generated by the press – there’s a belief held by “normal” members of society, that fashion is inaccessible, bizarre and only for “fashion people.”

Who would actually buy and wear the clothes you see on the runway?

Nobody, actually.

It’s helpful to remember that fashion shows are designed to generate buzz and make a statement. Designers rarely, if ever, take runway fashion and move it straight into stores. What you do see in stores is a distilled version of what you see on the runway.

However, as Fashion Week changes, you may start to see more runway shows that are more accessible. This is to accommodate fashion houses’ desire to cut down on the several months in between shows and when the clothing will actually hit market.

In my younger years I did runway for a while and was told that most of the clothes made by the designers were for artistic impression rather than for customary sales. Surprisingly some people do purchase some of these one of a kind garments. For where or for what, I have no idea.
 
At one time, I had in my closet, a red Nehru jacket, a madras shirt, extra wide bell bottoms, and six inch platform shoes, plus a large "Taurus" medallion on a gold like chain. So, what some guy wears on runway may soon be in men's closets all over the world. And as for male vanity, the male cosmetic and grooming industry is a 100+$billion in the US.
