If there were ever a show-stopping style offering, it'd have to be this Manon Kundig inflatable skull dress. This [eccentric creation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025) is best seen visually as words can't possibly describe the stunning visual effect the garment has as it engulfs its wearer's body in a sea of menace.

The idiosyncratic skull dress is a part of Manon Kundig's 'Blowjob' collection, which features a variety of [inflatable apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transhabit-collection), though nothing is quite as puzzling as this cranium-inspired garb. Kundig also pairs this dress with [turquoise skull-themed gladiator sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stomp-clog), just to up the ante of the ensemble.

If you think the skull dress looks the most dramatic while inflated, wait until you see it deflated. The piece morphs into a cape which stares down people who are unfortunate enough to be walking behind someone wearing this thing.
