A French fashion house just sent models down the runway in colorful VR headsets and iPhone holsters for your ankle
The theme of the Maison Margiela show was "nomadic glamour."
One popular accessory was the VR headset. Margiela designed them in a metallic cobalt blue ...
... Kelly green ...
... robin's egg blue ..
... and a shiny lavender, which looks a lot like this year's color of the year, ultra violet.
We're pretty sure the designers used Oculus Rift headsets, a virtual reality headset made by Oculus, a subsidiary of Facebook.
The Oculus Rift you can buy isn't as colorful — it only comes in black. Margiela's version, unlike the Rift, is wireless, but there's a good chance they just removed the connecting cable which is detachable.
Another big tech trend on the Margiela runway: iPhone holsters. Models wore them on their wrists ...
... and their ankles.
Margiela designed the holsters in various colors, like purple, blue, and orange.
And, for one final tech-enabled twist, a model walked down the runway wearing a TV that was — of course — streaming the show.
