When i first saw these images I thought somebody had run a lawn mover on the dresses . These are Viktor and Rolf outfit shoots for the February issue of dazed and confused ( 2010).Its been said that the Dutch duo have never played it safe . The fact remains that they can never really worn however It truly is futuristic in design . I'm sure the draping , cutting sewing of dresses like these are a mammoth task.Every time i went through these pictures sitting in one my folders they looked like cryptic puzzles. I have been looking out for there sketches in vain . Hmm now i only wish there were wearable versions of these.
On an other note would any of you wear one of these dresses ,just like it is. ??
Hard to wear exactly as they are - very inspiring though :)
ReplyDeletenah i would not wear any of these. But you are right! How the hell were these stitched?
ReplyDeleteKaty Perry has worn a few of these and that's the type of personality these suit... they're quirky but unfortunately not avant garde enough for me to wear [not that I would ever be willing to part with the kind of money!]. as my husband or really, any sane man... person... would say "but they've got holes!"
ReplyDeleteI loathe the red one. I know V&R are known for their offbeat aesthetic but it's such a try hard attempt at eclectic.
... I don't mind the third one.
oh the last picture!!! i actually googled for some pictures, and found the dress being modelled on the ramp and didn't know who it was...wow,Viktor and Wolf! i think i'm in love...the thrid picture too... :)
ReplyDeleteLOL @ Dusk's comment! I agree. I would not wear these dresses because they donot suit my dressing palate, which means that I do think these are wearable....but you gotta have the spunk to carry it off.
ReplyDeleteDont forget Lady Gaga...she'll totally wanna give any of these a try and I think she will carry it off with a ferocious chutzpah!
The third dress i think is wearable.. but I know 0 abt fashion,so I guess I better shut up!
ReplyDeletedazed and confused sums it up I think. But as for how wearable...doubtful.
ReplyDeleteNanana I saw these quite sometime back and just let out a sigh. Talk about wearable; what is this? I only go by Viktor & Rolf's perfumes. They are definitely wearable and much more. :)
ReplyDeleteThe dresses sure look weird!! :) No wudnt want to wear anything of this sorts.
ReplyDeletewhat r u saying!! i would totally wear any / all of these and walk proudly on the street... they r not that crazy...i think.. or maybe im just crazy ;-)
ReplyDeletevery, very weird dresses!
ReplyDeletei just don't get the 2nd one...i'm like *whaaaa?!*
hmmm, i might wear any one of those in a crazy mood on a crazy day
Such fun designs!
ReplyDeleteI'd wear them any day provided I'm somewhere on vacation! ;)
ReplyDeleteOo I wish I had that kind of spunk and moolah to afford wearing a dress like that! Like Dusk Devi says our bread winners will mow us down for even thinking of it!! hehehee...
ReplyDeleteActually, a couple of them have been worn. The second one especially -
