Maybe one of the strangest shows you'll see this year, the new Mercedes Castro Fall/Winter 2012 collection featured large, bulky and peculiar formed knitted sweaters that resembled the kind of Christmas sweater grandma would make for you -- only on acid.
Knitted jumpsuits for men featuring a tiger design or red cheetah print were my favorite pieces from this unusual offering, while
a sweater with a parasitic print and a ruffled bottom was just one of the many absurdities presented that definitely would have had people talking at Madrid Fashion Week.
A 'Le Petit Prince' sweater vest also gives fans of this collection a très adorable option for wearing around the house. So if you're looking for a sweater that is as crazy as it is couture, then you need to see this selection from the Mercedes Castro Fall/Winter 2012 line.
