The Dutch fashion duo Viktor & Rolf is known for eccentricity and difference. The duo always has a surprise in store, and they did not disappoint at the fashion show in Paris. For their latest collection, The Wearable Art, they actually used picture frames, and instead of canvas, they attached artistically painted fabric to them. Check out how the models look in wearable images.
Haute couture is definitely a field where creativity can run wild, especially when it comes to brands Viktor & Rolf. This one is recently at Haute Couture Week Fall/Winter 2015 in Paris presented a collection of wearable art at the Palais de Tokyo museum The Wearable Art. It is about clothes made from picture frames, and yes, when you are not wearing the dress, you can simply hang it on the wall, like a picture, rather than on a hanger, and put it in the closet. Bizarre?
If nothing else, this is one of the few extravagant pieces that it's not just disposable, as is often the case in high fashion, where dresses become "useless" and dust collectors after one event. Because if you're not going to wear it anymore, at least it should decorate your wall and, in addition to collecting dust, also serve as a corner home decoration.

This is not the first time when the alpha and omega of Viktor & Rolf are Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren, who actively and in front of visitors participated in a fashion show in Paris by "hanging" wearable pictures on models, mixed fashion and art. Let's just remember their clothing collection that inspired them the works of the painter Van Gogh. It should be added that the clothes from The Wearable Art collection are not just images attached to the body. "Foreign" fashion materials are only frames, while canvas has replaced goods with imitation of artistic paintings, also some from the golden 17th century of Dutch art.
