The distinctive jumpsuit, designed by Harri, had inflatable arms and legs.
Musician Sam Smith turned heads with the eye-catching black latex outfit the Unholy singer wore to the Brit Awards Saturday night in London.
Smith’s look, which included black platform heeled boots, had its fans, but also inspired some to take to social media to make jokes about UFOs and Billy Connolly’s “incontinence pants” come to life. Others wondered if it was an homage to one of David Bowie’s most memorable looks, the shiny, pinstripe jumpsuit with ballooning legs designed by Kansai Yamamoto that Bowie wore in 1973.
The designer of Smith’s outfit, Harri, told WWD that the look was intended to celebrate the natural form and “the beauty of being one’s self”.
