In a year when gathering models for a runway show is a health hazard, Jeremy Scott, Moschino's creative director, has taken fashion innovation to a whole new level.

Scott decided to debut his ready-to-wear Spring/Summer 2021 collection on marionette-models created by Jim Henson's Creature Shop.

He presented on Saturday his latest collection during Milan Fashion Week with the tiniest of runway shows that were cat-walked by life-sized puppets.

The collection was presented in a  seven-minute short film entitled, “No Strings Attached,”, which was shot in just three days.

The puppets were first made in life-size iterations; the designs were designed to fit the 30-inch-tall figures of many fashion figures such as Anna Wintour and Hamish Bowles at the front and Soo Joo on the catwalk.

The collection consisted of 40 new looks inspired by the kind of upside-down year we have had.

The designs reflect 2020 even further in their design, edges, seams, corsetry boning, panels, darts, trims, and more.

Golden rose-shaped embroidery kicks off the lineup on dresses and trench coats, followed by a perse selection of colors and materials. The collection also featured ruffled tops and cascade wrap-dresses.
