    WoW I did not realize that these were living, breathing models until about the 5th picture down. Amazing, I like how the anonymity of the models makes the clothes stand out that much more. the fringe colorful dress is amaaaaazing.

    ah its amazing how many people have mistaken the models as mannequins, perhaps thats that point, but i didn’t even realize they were ‘real’ until i read the comments .. freaky!

    Personally I find it quite disturbing to treat real persons like mannequins.
    Even if there is evidently an artistic message behind it, I find these images very degrading for the models.

    terribly uninspired.
    margiela is great yes, but his artisnal collections are the same every season, and for someone labeled as the GOD OF AVANT GARDE FASHION i would expect a bit more innovation.

    Holy Cow! Thank you for posting these atrocious photos. My daughter was a Ford model and she quit because they would make her do awful stuff like that. I am so glad she quit.

    It reminds me of the documentary called “killing us softly” about the objectification of women and its effects on both girls and women in society. I find these photos disturbing.

    The first thing that came to mind upon seeing this is Project Runway contestant Keith. His swatches and his “sad chicken” garment. Anyone else?
    Interesting stuff!

    This collection is truly inspirational! Its very funky and creative, and im sure some DIYers could create similar pieces from this insiration. One looks as though it is just shredded jean? Crazy what can be made with fabrics!!
