Fashion week is that time of the season when designers are given the chance to showcase their work to an audience that determines which clothes or accessories are going to be trendy. For each season, the fashion industry schedules a fashion week, where designers from all over the world come together to show off their new collections. Each of the fashion capitals of the world takes turns in hosting fashion week for every season.
A lot of designers work hard to get the chance to present their work during fashion week.
For a designer, being invited to the said event means that you stand the chance to be on the same level as the established fashion houses like Gucci, Chanel, and Dior, to name a few.
But there are designers who take risks during fashion week. For some, the event is not just about selling your work to the magazine editors and celebrities who determine trends. No, other designers look at it as an opportunity to make a statement. Some designers who have a reputation for challenging the "normal" when it comes to fashion include John Gallano, Vivienne Westwood, and the late Alexander McQueen.
However, it seems that there are also those designers who just want to shock their audience more than anything else.
Take one designer who presented his line of bags at Madrid Fashion Week in 2005 for example.
He stunned audiences (and eventually, the internet) when he chose to have his new bag collection be brought to the runway by a bunch of naked male models.

One netizen revealed that the person responsible for the show was a Spanish designer named Luis Garcia.
The video has apparently been around for more than a decade but it looks like netizens can't seem to get over it until now.
And we understand why.
