Showstopper: Viktor & Rolf


By Jennifer Ennis

The fashion crowd went wild for Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren's AW 2010 show on Saturday but it wasn't about the clothes - it was all about the show!

The designer duo who are known for their presentations went back to the 90s and re-used their very interesting concept. 90s supermodel Kristen McMenamy opened the show - wearing the entire collection! Then Viktor & Rolf took to either side and proceeded to peel each layer from her and dress the rest of the models on a rotating platform. Eventually McMenamy was left in a nude bodysuit, and the conveyor belt was reversed as the models reappeared and Viktor & Rolf used their garments to dress the supermodel again for her final looks!

It was very entertaining and met with rapturous applause. Viktor & Rolf really pull out the stops to create memorable shows. The only problem is, people seem to have forgotten to mention the actual clothes...
