I Don't Get It

While I was doing some reading on the Foreign Policy website, I came across this picture.


Now I know that Fashion is supposed to be forward thinking and edgy and all that. But who would wear something like that? Anywhere? I mean, at least with concept cars, their features and whatnot often make it into production vehicles, and sometimes the who care does. But what part of that model's insane getup is ever going to see the light of day anyplace other than a runway? Or am I just not getting the fact that fashion and clothing aren't intended to be the same thing?
