These avant-garde winter fashions range from arctic wears to patterned wool ensembles that are nomadic in their visual aesthetic. From the theatrical to the artfully constructed, these avant-garde winter fashions celebrate self-expression and individuality.
The pieces are conceptual and often defy tradition with unconventional shapes, intricate details and textile prints. Some memorable examples from the list include sculptural and changeable parkas that are showcased in a topographic print.
The pieces also include tapestry-constructed garments that feature furry textures and bulbous shapes. Overall, these avant-garde winter fashions will make one stand apart from the crowd. While they may not necessarily be ultra wearable, theses ensembles are beautiful to photograph, making them an essential in high fashion editorials, print ads and conceptual video campaigns.
