A dress in designer Benjamin Cho's Fashion Week collection brings Haute Couture to a new level. Notice the effect of the hands and the knitting.
Now I know this would freak most people out, but if this idea takes off, you'l never have to worry about finishing anything again...
"Ben Cho, a nerd? Mmm:not quite. But it was interesting to learn that he is “really into nature and rock collecting.†That's not the first thing you'd expect to hear from a designer with such a cool following. (Today we spotted the MisShapes, Ryan McGinley, Chloë Sevigny, Jeffrey Deitch, and Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, who joshed about wanting to recruit their competitor to work for them.)"
