What is the point of runway fashion?
1 Answer

The point of runway fashion is to provide a sample of a fashion house's latest offerings. Couture maisons present innovative, creative works during fashion shows to demonstrate what is currently inspiring their designers. Since most luxury fashion houses produce custom pieces to order, runway fashion is a way to spark interest and attract clientele. In addition, the looks featured in runway fashion shows tend to set trends that ready-to-wear and fast fashion labels incorporate into their pieces each season.
