Models across Europe have stunned the fashion world by walking the runway in bizarre looks – including geometric face coverings concealing everything but the nose, fishnet veils and boxy gowns which appeared to be made entirely by pouches.
Designs from walks like Dzhus x NEWEST in Berlin brought a quirky avant-garden quality to one of the most renowned events in vogue as it comes to an end this week.
Elsewhere in Paris, pop-art inspired looks from Walter Van Beirendonck saw PVC-esque red bubbles and wrestling-style face masks adorn fun, colourful ensembles.
Runway snaps from the German capital show some of the more daring looks from the eclectic collections displayed, including a rectangular headpiece and using hair as a face veil.
Fashion Week models across Europe stunned viewers with bizarre looks featuring boxy gowns which appeared to be made entirely by pouches. Pictured, a runway in Berlin
One model sported a grey, textured zip up dress which was so tall that it folded over their face, seemingly blocking the line of vision.
The ankle-length and sleeveless piece featured a ruffled hem, and was teamed with short chunky boots.
Continuing with a grunge-industrial aesthetic, a second runway look showed an entirely see-through dress, made of shimmery tulle-esque fabric, adorned with cutout detailing along the chest.
They wore a long, black overcoat on top of their head like a veil, seemingly topping the headpiece with another hat to balance.
