As the year 2015 comes to an end, we discuss about the show internet most freaked about, yes the Ricky Owens Spring summer 2016 show about human backpacks. The arrival of a model wearing a sleeveless long jacket, shorts, and a semi-sheer top, with the woman strapped to her back with her straight legs sticking out, baffled everybody. More so as the designer left immediately after the show to avoid addressing the consequent media frenzy.
He later explained saying, in the Spring women’s collection (Cyclops), the focussed vision being more about nourishment, sisterhood/motherhood and regeneration; women raising women, women becoming women, and women supporting women – a world of women I know little about and can only attempt to amuse in my own small way…Straps can be about restraint but here they are all about support and cradling.
