With fashion, the sky is the limit. A design or concept is only unusual or weird till it catches on and becomes part of the ongoing fashion. Still, some designs are made for the sole purpose of proving a point – the following dresses for instance. Now, these dresses may be outrageous but they are works of art nonetheless. One has to appreciate the ideas behind each of these dresses and the finesse behind the subsequent implementation.
