Can we make parallels between the most famous Lithuanian designer Juozas Statkevičius and Karl Lagerfeld? Of course not. However, just as Karl’s show is the most anticipated show during the Paris fashion week, in Lithuania the most anticipated fashion show of the year is that of Juozas! No one but Karl is capable of dragging an iceberg to the Chanel runway directly from the Atlantic Ocean, a part of Place Vendôme in Paris, to build a farm in a museum or pave the entire runway. Meanwhile, Juozas does his mighty works in Vilnius. Only Juozas would think of erecting evolution relicts and dinosaur skeletons on the runway. And this year he surprised the audience with three rows of Mercedes cars with full auxiliary staff, gas cylinders and... a white horse.
