Berlin Fashion Week: Bearded ladies are the models of choice at Patrick Mohr show

The bearded ladies were joined by similarly odd-looking male models on the runway at Berlin Fashion Week today wearing what appeared to be giant boxer shorts.

But they later emerged in actual outfits for the front-row fashionistas to gawp at as an alternative.

It’s not the first time the German designer has caused a stir with the way he presents his designs.

Last year he utilized homeless people alongside professionals to model his collection entitled The Road to Hell Is Paved with Good Intentions.

And in January of this year, he showcased his clothes with the assist of sun-tanned bodybuilders and silicone-breasted, thong-wearing transvestites.

That show, Are We Shaved? centred around the idea that the variations between men and women is not that important.

Mohr
established his own label in 2008 just a year after graduating from the ESMOD Fashion School in Munich.
