Some designers will stop at nothing to get ink from the fashion writers. Here's a hair dress to illustrate the point. It was shown at the London College of Fashion awards. The aspiring designer is Julia Reindell. This was part of a collection of hair dresses, which included one that seemed to emanate from a normally private area.
Implications - The dress is a short one piece with what appears to be a tail dragging from behind. It's a fairly normal outfit, but the fact that it's made out of hair makes it as unconventional as it can be. Despite its unusual material, the VIP audience had praised it as the most interesting piece in the show.
