Schiaparelli's Daniel Roseberry wanted everyone to wonder, 'Is that a real lion?'
Published: Jan 23, 2023Paris Couture Week's Spring 2023 season opened with a roar this morning, when Schiaparelli's Daniel Roseberry debuted a series of gowns mounted with eerie, hyper-realistic animal heads bursting from the shoulder and bust. Irina Shayk wore such a dress to open the show, and Kylie Jenner sat front row in the same look. From some angles, it looks like Jenner is quite literally nuzzling a lion, its mane brushing against her contoured cheeks.
Their realism seems to have polarized the internet, with several commenters mistaking the faux heads for real taxidermy. The confusion is intentional; in the show notes for the show, Roseberry wrote, "Mimicry becomes its own form of Surrealism in this collection, such that you’re never quite sure who made the piece you’re looking at—was it nature?"
Not everyone was outraged. Designers and stylists like Adam Selman, Karla Welch and Marc Jacobs called the looks a "triumph", praising Roseberry as a "genius" on Instagram, where they showed their support with a slew of heart emojis. Over on fashion twitter, many saw the entire collection as a meticulous display of brilliance—a slay, if you will.
