Giant Folded Collars

Jan Taminiau Creates Dramatically Oversized Folded Fashions

Some clothes are made to be worn in your everyday life, and some are made to walk down a runway in. I think these wild collared dresses by Jan Taminiau fall under the second category (unless you are far braver than I am).

These extreme collared dresses by Jan Taminiau show the folded collar look at a generally unseen height. Take a look at these seriously extreme collars above, appreciate them, but don’t walk down the street in them (they may be hazardous to stroll in).
