Designer Creates LEGO Fashion Show. Seriously.

by Terrence O'Brien on November 12, 2008 at 01:25 PM


Ok, we get it. Everything is just more fun when you make it out of LEGO bricks. Even computer animated ones. There are three, count 'em, three LEGO Star Wars video games, a LEGO Indiana Jones game, LEGO Harry Potter and Lego Batman titles, as well. LEGO bricks make great music videos and even help geeks pour beer. But, even with all of that, we're still baffled by this.

Jean-Charles de Castelbajac (AKA JC/DC), a world renowned fashion designer with a flair for the whimsical, designed "outfits" for a four minute LEGO fashion show (see the video above). The video features the iconic LEGO "people" strutting down a multi-colored catwalk to the strains of 'Hollow Out' by The Aspirins for my Children.

The video features no punch line, joke, or anything else. It's a straight faced runway show... just made from LEGO blocks. We guess the entertainment value is supposed to be in the whimsy of it all, but it's kind of lost on us. But, what else do you expect from a guy who accompanies a slide show on his Web site with dogs barking 'I Want to Hold Your Hand.' [From: GeekSugar]
