BIZARRE Fashion!

Fashion. 

To some its wearing the newest trends before anyone even catches a glimpse and breaking the bank for the designer labels. However, i believe its about self expression - you see some of the marvelous creations on the runway and think 'Im not wearing that!?', im guilty of such! But when you find the reasoning behind the design, you can understand why it is so. Fashion , at times, can be downright bizarre! From the meat dress created by the Haus Of Gaga , to the dreams of Alexander McQueen. Fashion is an art! and should be respected as such! Therefore in this post, i will be showing a number of these beautiful creations, starting of with, of course, McQueen!

Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen has had experience in so many areas of fashion, from Savile Row tailoring, to the theatrical costumiers Angels and Bermans. All of which come through in his collections! As a designer, he tended to contrast different elements, for example, Fragility and Strength. He never held back and you can just see his imagination throughout his work!

"I think there is beauty in everything. What ‘normal’ people would perceive as ugly, I can usually see something of beauty in it." - Alexander McQueen

Haus Of GaGa

The Haus Of Gaga is the creative team behind the driving force of Music, Art, Fashion, Politics - Lady GaGa!  They create the vast majority of her props, stage themes and of course, her outfits. Lady GaGa took inspiration from Andy Warhol, when creating the Haus Of GaGa, and everything they do. She believed that "He was able to make commercial art that was taken seriously as fine art..." Through all of this, GaGa sends messages to the world, builds connections to the world, and express herself as individual!

" I am a walking piece of art every day, with my dreams and my ambitions forward at all times in an effort to inspire my fans to lead their life in that way." - Lady GaGa

Yang Du

Yang Du is a surrealist fashion label created by Du Yang. Tending to blur the lines between art and fashion, (especially in her collection 'IT IS A DREAM IN COLOURS') Yang Du is an artist turned fashion desinger extravaganza! Some of you may have not heard of her, but she is fairly new on the scene, but definitely one to look out for! Having worked with the likes of Vivienne Westwood and Giles Deacon - she sure has a massive future in front of her!

"Are you a Shark or Sheep?" - Yang Du

Vivienne Westwood

The Queen of Punk. Vivienne Westwood's design are as flamboyant and extravagant as her flame orange hair. Known for such, she has spread over the world - a fashion icon in her own right! Appearing during the punk era, her designs are infused with safety pins, tartan and whatever takes her fancy! Westwood's first collection was called 'Worlds End' with which she opened her first store to sell, but now with collections such as 'Gold Label' and 'Red Label', her creativity as flourished beyond boundaries!

"Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well." - Vivienne Westwood
