as fashion week comes to a close in paris, new york, london and milan, the fashion media is abuzz with
the latest looks and top trends. however trends are very fickle, so we thought we would present some
of the more unusual moments form around the globe. we start in paris, where karl lagerfeld displayed
a line of women’s clothes which had a very masculine feel. this idea was epitomized by the karl lagerfeld
handbag shown above.  across the channel, the giles label showcased a line of clothes featuring some
pretty odd headgear resembling the characters from pac-man. humour wasn’t so much appreciated in
milan, when actor sasha baron cohen (a.k.a. borat/ali g) stormed the runway at the agatha ruiz de la
prada show wearing his own outfit made from found objects. cohen was apprehended by police,
proving to be only a minor interruption during the show. meanwhile, dutch fashion duo viktor & rolf
decided to showcase their pixel inspired collection in a more unusual setting: online. using only one
model and a team of 57 digital artists, the fashion house debuted their collection through a ten-minute
video on their website.
