Fancy slipping into this?

Among her fantastic creations was this outrageous one featuring what appeared to be a series of spheres stuck together.

Koshino is known to adopt technological changes in fabric and club trends in her designs.

And her latest collection did not disappoint.

One onlooker said: "I don't think a single person watching was not taken aback by what they saw.

"Whether you love or hate Michiko's fashions, there's no denying they get your attention."
