The biggest show of Parisian haute couture fashion week is the Schiaparelli Spring 2023 collection. The shocking looks inspired by “Hell” show not so much high fashion as the wonders of artificial taxidermy. Designer Daniel Roseberry complemented the outfits of his Schiaparelli collection with a series of faux severed animal heads.

Covered from head to toe in Swarovski crystals, the Doja Cat model became the most memorable character. A wave of indignation was caused by Kylie Jenner, who appeared before the show in a dress with a very realistic lion head on her shoulder.
The three dresses that appeared on the catwalk looked like they were constructed from stuffed lions, snow leopards, and black wolves. Despite their ultra-realistic appearance, each of the busts, as well as their accompanying dresses, were made from handmade foam, silk faux fur, resin, and wool and hand-painted to give them a realistic look.

No animals were harmed in the making of this look.

I love wearing this piece, handcrafted from man-made materials.

Hand-embroidered lion looked as realistic as possible, glorifying the natural world.
