Every once in awhile I like to pop my head into the high fashion industré and see what’s coming down the pipeline in terms of trends. Wandering a Forever 21 several months after collections have solidified new colors, cuts, fabrics, etc., will I be forced to consider kitten heels (*shrieks*) or severing my own head courtesy of Gucci? And looking at Schiaparelli’s Fall 2018 couture show, I know that the hottest trend coming our way is furry chic.
Bertrand Guyon, creative director of the brand, sent models down the runway in animal-themed ensembles, complete with elaborate butterfly, flamingo, rabbit and puppy dogs masks that screamed “I absolutely have a fursona and yes, thanks for asking, I do run a DeviantArt account dedicated to my erotic animal drawings.”
