10 of the loudest and most revolutionary phenomena from the world of fashion that blew up 2023 (11 photos)

It may seem that the fashion world is quite boring - dresses and handbags, handbags and dresses. But in fact, this industry also has its revolutionaries who take the very concept of fashion to a new level.





The fashion portal Dezeen summed up the results of 2023 and named the most high-profile fashion events and phenomena that were most talked about this year.

Plasticine clothes from JW Anderson



At London Fashion Week, designer Jonathan Anderson presented a “plasticine” collection. The master decided to add lightness and playfulness to fashion.

“Big red (yellow) boots” from MSCHF and Crocs



The world had not yet moved on from the Big Red Boots, which were created by the MSCHF brand, when they teamed up with Crocs and created the Big Red Boots (Yellow). The funny boots from this collaboration have changed color and acquired recognizable Crocs holes.

“Animal” dresses from Schiaparelli



At Paris Fashion Week, Schiaparelli made a real splash - they presented three dresses with animal heads. And here all possible activists would be indignant, but during the creation of these outfits not a single wild animal was harmed, since artificial materials were used to create them. All that remains is to applaud the masters who were able to achieve such stunning realism.

BioSequin jumpsuit by Stella McCartney



It would be possible not to pay attention to this jumpsuit, if not for one thing. When creating the outfit, fashion designer Stella McCartney abandoned non-recyclable plastic in favor of biomaterials. The shiny little discs used to embroider the jumpsuit are made from cellulose polymer, which is extracted from trees. This material naturally reflects light and gives shine to the records.

Uno Bra by Katie Marks



Designer Katie Marks survived breast cancer and a mastectomy. Drawing on her experience, she developed a collection of single-cup bras and swimsuits. According to Katie, she created a similar bodice model to make women feel more confident in their asymmetry.

Microscopic Louis Vuitton handbag from MSCHF



MSCHF know a lot about making a fuss. The internet exploded when they unveiled a microscopic 3D printed Louis Vuitton handbag. The size of the bag is 657 by 222 by 700 micrometers. The brand created this item to ridicule and question the functionality of the increasingly small handbags produced by the fashion industry.

By the way, the handbag was eventually sold for $63,750, which is almost 20 times more than the cost of the original Louis Vuitton bag.

Rewild the Run by Kiki Grammatopoulos



Rewild the Run is a unique shoe design with a chunky bristle sole created by Kiki Grammatopoulos. Shoes like these help spread plant seeds in urban environments (similar to how plant seeds attach to animal fur and spread naturally).

Inverted dresses from Victor & Rolf



We have already written about these extraordinary dresses. Here you can read more about that unique show.

Architectural bags by Frank Gehry for Louis Vuitton



Pritzker Prize-winning architect Frank Gehry has designed a limited edition bag especially for Louis Vuitton. Gehry used three of his most famous buildings as a basis - the Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and the Concert Hall Walt Disney Hall in Los Angeles.
