Rick Owens Explains His Ballsy 2015 Fall/Winter Presentation
One of the most talked about points during the Paris menswear presentations for 2015 fall/winter was Rick Owens‘ decision to send three penises down the runway for the world to see (click here for the collection). i-D caught up with the designer backstage and asked him where the inspiration came from. “I thought it was the most simple, primal gesture — and you know I love a simply tiny, little gesture that packs the wallop.” If you missed it, the penises were displayed out of holes in deconstructed uniforms that created a horse-shoe frame around the region, where they weren’t fully on display but were prominent enough for everyone to notice.
