Odd Fashion at New Zealand Fashion Week

Jaeha Winter 2008 CollectionI know that fashion week is for the wild, the eccentric, and sometimes the just plain odd.

But isn’t this too much?

This model wears an all-black ensemble as she struts her stuff on the catwalk at New Zealand Fashion Week.

Her black knee-high lace-up boots are complemented by a hooded jacket and a umm … a ski mask?

What statement is this outfit making? Where could you wear it?

To a bank robbery? In a sandstorm?

Oh well … maybe I just don’t get it.

In case you were wondering, this outfit is from the Jaeha Winter 08 collection.

Ignoring the ski mask, I think I really like the boots. I would have loved to have seen them with a black or grey tunic dress and bright colored tights.

One of my favorite looks for fall is brights accessories with blacks and greys. Many women aren’t comfortable wearing a fuschia or orange dress, but would like to add a little color to their wardrobe.

By wearing bright tights, shoes, jewelry and headbands, you can get a little wild without it being “too much.”
