Christopher Kane 'Gorilla' Dress $2,368.00. Available at Browns Fashion

I've always considered Christopher Kane a visionary. His creativity, imagination, talent and passion for fashion is undeniable. But I just don't get this Gorilla dress. The silhouette is fabulous. The screaming gorilla print on the other hand, not so much!

If this dress was made with the intention to raise funding in support of the preservation of gorillas. And remind us of the dwindling population of primates and how they are hunted to sell in the black market. Then such depiction of bestiality on a dress is understandable.

And with a price tag close to $2,400, you better be damn sure nobody else would be wearing the same dress when you're at a party or something.
