Plastic couture seems poised to storm the fashion world, according to some pundits.
In the meantime, we are supposed to be in the middle of an environmental crisis of major proportions, of which the usage of non-biodegradable plastic has been identified as a major culprit.
But enough pontificating! We should just enjoy the sight of a plastic-clad chick or dude sauntering around with their underwear riding up to their necks.
Implications - The appeal of outfits like this is almost certainly only novelty. In a day and age where sites like Lookbook and social media networks like Facebook and Twitter make it easy for people to share what they're wearing, stylistic originality has a new value. Outfits like this are made for ingenuity-obsessed fashionistas.
