I Have Not Looked At The Latest Fashions,

for some time,


 so here is a glimpse of what the youngsters will be wearing this year,

the inflated clothing items were designed by Fredrik Tjærandsen, a Norwegian designer who recently won the L’Oreal Professionel Young Talent Award for his 2019 BFA fashion presentation at Central Saint Martins in London,

 apparently you effortlessly emerge from the top after yanking the rubber object down around your shoulders or waist, not only are the dresses performative, they are also rewearable, after the bubble has gone flat, it can either be reinflated or simply worn as a deflated dress,

 initially Tjærandsen wanted to study sculpture during his BFA. His pieces, which he refers to as “bubbles,” reflect this initial interest in sculpture, and additionally have a conceptually tie to his childhood,

 “I was inspired by my own early childhood memories. I wanted to recreate the fogginess and the ‘mist’ of the memories themselves,” Tjærandsen told Vogue

“The inflated bubbles are about being able to wear an unclear memory. When the bubble emerges onto the catwalk, it’s the dream. The deflation of the bubble visualizes the moment when we realize we have a consciousness.” You can see more of Tjærandsen’s rubbery designs on Instagram, so this is the look for the summer of 2019,  it is a shame they do not make a similar thing for men, just think of how much weight I would lose, sweating inside one of these in the summer sun!
