An unexpected edge of playful fun is added to On Aura Tout Vu's Fall/Winter 2010 couture show, as fluffy fanged monsters adorn razor-sharp suiting. The initial incongruity is not immediately apparent, as the fangs are a continuation of the sleeve, oversized eyes surrounded with explosions of white fur.
Elsewhere in the collection, the fanged monster adorns oversized shoulder pads, worn with an all-in-one embellished gold bodysuit. Appropriating the signature motifs of Jean Charles de Castelbajac for couture, On Aura Tout Vu merges tradition and technique with witty whimsicality.
