Vivienne Westwood showed her fall collection at the Royal Courts of Justice in London, a venue more usually home barristers and solicitors than teenaged models made over to look like crazy cat ladies who’d had one too many go-rounds with Marge Simpson’s makeup gun. What fun!
Charlotte Free, the newly famous pink-haired model, opened the show.
The makeup, in case you couldn’t tell, was pretty extraordinary: gold leaf was heavily implicated.
And you gotta love that quizzical right eyebrow.
The collection involved lots of layers.
As well as crooked ties.
And bag-lady co-ordinates.
And circus tent skirts.
If the straitjacket fits…
The whole thing was topped off with a variety of undersized chapeaux. Very Tim & Eric.
I love how that crazy dress manages, somehow, to make that model’s boobs look awesome. Even a skinny-ass runway model can have awesome looking boobs, with that dress! That’s the magic of Vivienne Westwood, right there.
Never mind the, er, clown coat. That has no boob-tastic effects.
