Xander Zhou stunned the audience at London Fashion Week Men's with his otherworldly runway theme and his abnormal fashion collection for Spring/Summer 2019. The deconstructed silhouettes are vibrant and stylish, with a wide variety of fitted and loose garments. Xander Zhou, however, put great effort in constructing a world around the abnormal fashion, placing the clothing in the context of the other.
A robotic female voice was set as the soundtrack at the presentation. With changing phrases like "I am digitized," the audio feature created an eerie tech-infused ambiance. In the rather dystopian context, the models strutted down the runway, wearing contact lenses to dehumanize them and suggest a connection to extra-terrestrial beings. However, it seems the most shocking part of the abnormal fashion presentation was the men, wearing prosthetic pregnant bellies down the runways, signifying a twist in evolution.
