I actually think LDA's designs are stunning. In the Fashion scene, she comes a distant second to Deola Sagoe.mad Max stop hating jorr!! The dresses actually look stunning,

@Shola & Spikie Stunning ehn? You know you wouldn't be caught dead wearing them. It's couture, I guess she's allowed. My first thoughts though were the same as yours . Zizi's better. Those LDA things? They look like a child's colouring book. See Zizi's mouth like someone owes her money and she's coming to fight. |

That's the very idea of couture, unrealistic but creative fashion. They were not made for pret a porter.
I like LDA jor! You should see some of her regular designs. Lemme look for them for you. |

That Mcqueen collection's the scariest thing ever!  Who's his client: Satan? Look at his models. Pouting, runway walking freak shows. |

You just spoke my mind. I don't know why they call all these fashion, sincerely, they are simply not fashionable. |

@muneer2 et all
You are missing the point, fashion shows are about edginess, uniqueness, pushing the boundaries of what is norm, its that creativity that people are applauded for. Typically what is then available on the high streets are very toned down or slightly similar versions of these creations.
Lets learn to appreciate what these guys do, they effectively determine whats hot and whats not.
