Fashion is all about individual expression, however, sometimes what is seen coming down haute-couture runways can be bizarre. But a recent fashion show is just said, “hold my beer,” to the truly weird and creative.
Central Saint Martins’ graduate fashion-show this year featured a student, Fredrik Tjaerandsen, who unveiled his unique collection of balloon couture. The models entered the runway wearing huge rubber bubbles, which then became dresses or multi-piece sets.
The Internet was quick to circulate the videos of Tjaerandsen’s creations, and social media users were blown away by the creativity of his collection. He’s even already won himself the L’Oreal Professinal Young Talent Award.
In a report by Love Magazine, Tjaerandsen revealed how he created the garments, admitting that he used an air pressure system, which allowed the wearer to control air flow. To deflate, the model simply activated an internal latch that would then let the air out of the bubble.
Models
also demonstrated how the eye-catching ensembles worked on the runway, showing
how the control of the latches allowed the balloons to transform into wearable
rubber dresses.
