What if we turned a condom into a wedding gown?
Pour a cup of water (or perhaps lube, or baby oil) over a condom, and Poster Girl’s latex wizardry will turn it into a sexy body-snatching sheer bandeau dress. For their PFW debut, the London-based mischief duo is taking the concept of ‘Objectified’ very literally. Eclectic items – a sunny-side up egg, a shell, a cut-off braid – are pedestalled in a very Duchamp-esque grandeur next to their big sister iterations in haute garments form. Think ‘Call Girl dress’, whose coiled bra-cup-turned-collier mimics a vintage telephone wire, or the ‘Chicken Catsuit’ body, which takes its fire-set feathers from a literal chick. True to their long-standing ethos, Poster Girl surely keep their tongue firmly in their cheek. And as if the rubber wasn’t already snapping, our eternal latex muse, Cobrah, pulled up to seal the deal.
