This is from his show for New York Fashion Week. Nobody ever wears the designs you see in these shows, male or female. Its haute couture. At some point some elements of the designs shown at a fashion week may be used on actual clothing. NYFW is but one of several fashion weeks. There's one in London, one in Paris, and a couple of less important ones in other cities.

These are like those elaborate hair styles that turn up in the glossy magazines. Nobody is expected to actually wear them. Some designers only do one week, others do two or three. Arguably the most important weeks are New York and Paris. But these designs are intended to catch the eye of the important people. Get a spread in a magazine like Vogue and a contract for actual clothing may come your way.

These shows do set certain standards, if one of the major houses uses something different like say men's cut double-breasted jackets on their female models then look to see that in the clothing that is for sale. They don't always work though, remember when they tried to switch from the miniskirts to midis. The buying public pretty much ignored them and stayed with the short skirts.

Watch for the RTW shows, (Ready To Wear). These are the designs that will actually make it to the racks. The knock-off manufacturers avidly pour over those shows so they can get product out to ride on the designer's coattails. The houses claim to be annoyed to pissed off about that. But if they are so upset, why do the reps get invited to the shows? Some have actually tried to short circuit the knock-offs by collaborating with mass market sellers. That's why we see XYZ house for Target or Walmart. That stuff is usually sold out in a couple of hours. Then they show up on ebay at five to ten times the list price. A very affordable skirt that sold for $100-$125 will turn up on ebay for a $1,000 or more. And people pay it!

I like to watch the fashion week shows, they are usually entertaining. I look to the RTW shows to see what is going to happen in the real world.

I thought ru paul was over the top.

Number 9 (if you count left to right as 1,2, then back to left as 3) harks back to the 1700's in men's fashions, and number 13 looks like what Freddy Mercury might have worn. 10 is Boy George all over.

18 would be pretty good for a woman, but it requires hips to carry off.

21 appears to be from the DuPont corporation, or maybe Glad - possibly Hefty.. probably not, no cinch.

23 looks like John Travolta from the 70's, being abused by a gay tailor.
