Rick Owens' peek-a-boo penises might have stolen this season's headlines, but from Paris to New York to Milan there was still plenty of weird to go around at the womenswear shows. Fashion Month represents the intersection of some of the most brilliant, bizarre minds, the most beautiful faces, the most famous egos in the world, and the results are always predictably wild. We're always down to celebrate the strange, the eerie, and the unique, and this season's shows provided all three in spades. It's Friday the 13th, so we rounded up our favorite WTF moments from Fashion Month.
