Designer coronavirus masks: a new trend?

Fashion is a very sensitive industry to the outside world, which instantly picks up the mood of society. And while the coronavirus is spreading all over the world, doctors are tirelessly saving the sick and the number of deaths is growing every day, fashion designers give free rein to their imagination and come up with the most unusual colors, prints and shapes of medical masks.

It all started with shows at fashion weeks in Paris and Milan, which took place in February and March - already during the coronavirus epidemic in China. Many designers have thought about how to hold fashion shows in new conditions. And some of them decided to distribute original masks to guests and models at fashion shows. In particular, this was done by the Belgian couturier Dries Van Noten.

With each new appearance in public, designer medical masks became more and more popular until they became a real trend. Yes, they do not protect against the virus and are nothing more than an accessory, but they look very impressive and catchy!

One of the first brands to make stylish masks for mass distribution was Fendi. Given the coronavirus outbreak in Italy, fashionable respirators with the brand's print sold out in two days, despite the price of $200.

The famous clothing brand Off-White also picked up the idea and released a whole collection of various masks. The line includes eight options in blue, black, yellow, white and burgundy. The cost of one mask is $95.

Masks with thin lace, decorated with patterns of stones and silver pins, were presented by Alexander Wang. The price of such a creation is $195.
