Metalware Fashion

Blow Presents the Shining Gemma Slack S/S '10 Collection

If I were one of these models, I would have been, at the very least, dubious about donning any of these metallic pieces from the Gemma Slack S/S 10 collection. Although they are singular fashions, honestly, I would have been frightened of severing my head or torso, not to mention simply being blinded by these creations.

Part of the second Blow Presents show, the Gemma Slack S/S 10 collection was just one of the four designers showcased. Incredibly avant-garde, she was definitely one of the stand-out designers. Although these angular sheets of metal frightened me at first, I can’t help but (somewhat) agree with Style Bubble--perhaps metal is wearable?
