This gallery showcases some of the most outrageous fashion shows we've seen take place around the world. Considering the incredible talent, creativity and gargantuan budgets that go into the world's top runway shows, it's no surprise these stages can be incredibly over the top.
From the LEGO runway used by Jean-Charles de Castelbajac to flaunt his Spring 2009 show, to Fendi's unforgettable runway show on the actual Great Wall of China, this cluster shows some of the finest ways to flaunt couture.
