Was Balenciaga's 53rd Couture by Demna a joke?

Fashion is all about pushing the boundaries, but this looked ridiculous...

We know a thing or two about style, and when it comes to fashion shows, sometimes we wonder whether we are tripping on the runway or if the designers are trying to crack a joke. 

Many content creators and fashion influencers share this sentiment, having watched the looks revealed at Balenciaga's 53rd Couture Collection by Demna

Demna is a Georgian Fashion Designer and the Creative Director at Balenciaga, a French luxury fashion line created by Spanish couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga in San Sebastián in 1919. 

Watch the final look from Balenciaga's 53rd Couture Collection by Demna, which was truly jaw-dropping (in our opinion, not in a good way).

If we are honest, we will admit that we have seen some controversial fashion items from this brand. From a Tape Bracelet to a Chips Handbag

It is shocking to hear that the final look was constructed just before the show could start and is said to be a once-off piece; in other words, it can only be worn once. 

Listen to what this content creator had to say about the entire collection on TikTok. He is certain that this was a joke.
