22 Examples of Plastic Fashion

Used in textile, prop and sets, this compiled list showcases plastic fashion at its finest and most stylish.

With the Spring 2013 ready-to-wear collection season almost up, there have been various examples of plastic-like fashion taking over the runways. Rick Owens incorporated the synthetic material into his avant-garde vision for his Spring 2013 collection. Sébastien Peigné and Nicola Formichetti also utilized the shiny texture at Mugler prêt-à-porter to entice with pliable runway garments.

Aside from collections, plastic fashion has taken over the editorial world in the form of props and sets to create worlds of synthetic style. This tendency makes for a futuristic look that adds an aesthetic feel that is distinctly artificial. This unnatural look creates a bold contrast, making for visuals that are strikingly revolutionary.
