The Intruder at the Fashion Week Drill
Ever since the schedules of the upcoming Paris Fashion Week were announced, the venue has been buzzing with drills. Paris Fashion Week has a history of featuring some of the most unconventional and downright strange outfits in the fashion industry.
But, not only the outfits, the show also has a record in having uninvited guests over the stage- “Intruders”. Attendees have come to anticipate the unexpected, which might explain why a recent stunt didn’t raise many eyebrows in the audience.
Recently, in a surprising turn of events, a professional prankster managed to stroll down the runway during a current fashion show. The guy was wearing a plastic garbage bag and a shower cap.

They were completely oblivious to the fact that they were witnessing a prank in motion.
The young man confidently walked his act all the way to the end of the runway. Nobody made any attempt to interrupt him.

It was a bizarre moment that left many wondering what motivates an individual to crash a high-profile fashion show. This brings us to the question, “WHY”?
