It is quite safe to say that majority of people try extremely hard to stay in trend with their clothes, watches, sunglasses and what not. But there are very few people who actually manage it and that too in the ‘extreme’ way we are talking about. Take this person pointing at you from his picture as an example. His sense of fashion, although weird, is out of the world!

He is sporting a black sleeveless shirt which looks quite common and reveals those figurative tattoos on either of his shoulders. He also has a bag around his shoulders which is not visible but for its strap. But, that is not the point. Look at that bag-shaped mask of his which has been properly cut out of what appears to be silken leather. The mask has been so made to reveal his narrow eyes, nose and mouth. Light-lustrous-blue in color with red shades of broad outlines for his naturally given vision, smelling and talking equipment respectively, the mask is certainly an instance of extreme fashion.

This mask has a personality of its own! It perfectly suits two species on this earth; studs and stupids. Experts believe that these two types of people are one and the same thing because the only difference between them is ‘pi’! Anyways, coming back to extreme fashion, there is a tale behind the invention of this mask. The mask was an idea of a cobbler who used his stitching skills and proficiency to achieve this. The cobbler worked hard for years together and finally, the mask was ready which gave him a hope that he can be a good fashion designer. He repeated the process of carving an opening for eyes, nose and mouth in his women clothing line. But fate had something different for him in store. All the consumers of his clothes complained that the eyes, nose and mouths of people on streets open with shock and desire whenever they are passing by.

And this way the cobbler’s dream to become an internationally acclaimed fashion designer was crushed. He patronized extreme fashion in a wrong way and became a victim of it. Here goes the moral of this story: “A bird in hand is worth two in a bush”.
