This is a fashion editorial from teh Vogue December 2008 UK Issue. In the name of high fashion its features risk taking designers such as Alexander McQueen, Comme des Garcons, Gareth Pugh, Hussein Chalayan, Issey Miyake, John Galliano, Thierry Mulgas, Hussein Chalayan, Rei Kawakubo, Viktor & Rolf and Yohji Yamamoto.
