Chicago-based Nick Cave creates amazing sound suits which he considers to be physical manifestations of his energy. I cannot vouch for sound, but as you can see from the gallery, the sound suits are totally amazing.
Nick Cave's suits belong to the most surreal examples of clothing as art I have seen. Also, unlike some forms of arty clothing, these can actually be worn.
Implications - Artists like Nick Cave are looking for ways to draw in the masses while also delivering their message. By creating fashion designs that are considered art, viewers are drawn to see what exactly makes the fashions so unconventional. This also gathers free press and publicity.
