Coming out of Kiev Fashion Week, Ukranian fashion designer Elena Burenina featured limbs coming out of her models. The [runway looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reinventing-the-runway) featured [prosthetic legs and arms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/primark-x-victoria-jenkins) protruding from [bulky coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir).

What’s weirder (okay, maybe not *weirder* ) was one of the coats featured on the runway which was built for two. Perhaps made for those couples who are attached at the hip.

So, is Burenina’s new "imbspired" fashion fad wearable? Probably not, but the trend is certainly out on a limb.
