On the runway, Blindness covered their models with a mesh-like material to emphasizs the fashion statement. Along with both sexes wearing baggy clothing to accentuate the trend further. “The question we always want to ask is, ‘Is this men’s clothing or women’s clothing? Is that a man or a woman inside them?” Shin said backstage. “That’s the blindness, ” reports Vogue.
