As I've mentioned before, the fashion industry is an area of human endeavour that I've never quite understood. Today's exhibit from the Rijksmuseum demonstrates that the industry has a long history of being not entirely sane. It's a wedding dress that is two metres wide . While presumably the bride could advance grandly down the aisle in the church, I have visions of her mincing sideways...
