The truth is that most of the crazy outfits you see have one real purpose- relatively cheap advertising. Wildly flamboyant or excessively fabulous items of clothing are naturally going to pique the interest of the press more and, as a result, outfits seen at high fashion shows have been getting progressively more ridiculous over the years.
Think of it as a fashion arms race where the goal is to make an impossibly chiselled model doing their best to stay straight faced look as silly as possible. Looking beyond the consumer, these kind of shows are also noted as functioning as a proving ground of sorts for designers to show off their skills via demonstrating the extremes of what can be done with individual materials and fabrics.
It should also be noted that while the clothes seen on catwalks during high fashion shows are generally never intended for sale, they do often influence fashion in some way. Of course, when using elements of a ridiculous design, it is usually the case that designers will greatly tone things down, drawing broadly on ideas presented with the more garish outfits worn by models to create something more palatable to the general public. But, again as with high fashion, elements from these concept cars are occasionally integrated into more toned down cars later available for sale to the public.
Moving on to art side of things, it has been argued that fashion, or more accurately high fashion, should be considered a form of art, with the most popular comparison between between high fashion and modern art. Naturally, when you find out that you will see melted or candlelight clothes in a fashion show, the media will report it more. This a very important and short way for any fashion designer to come into the mainstream fashion industry. Haute Couture fashion reveals the designer's thinking, his creativity, and can hint at how such designers will work.
For example; If you see some Haute Couture clothes from a famous designer 'Elie Saab', maybe you can't understand his design, but at least you can understand the concept language that the designer like light thin fabric, embroidery, and you can see distinct elegance in his work.
When Elie Saab made Ready-to-Wear clothes for models and actresses, you can see the same language in those clothes were in Haute Couture i. Another example of Alexander McQueen, If you look at his Haute Couture clothes, you guess that these dresses will hardly be worn by anyone, but when you see his same language in red carpet dresses; honestly, the models look stunningly gorgeous.
At least it is clear from these examples that the fashion designer when making Haute Couture does not care about the question of how good or bad the dress is, or whether or not people will like it, but a designer design his creativity just like an artist puts his creativity on a painting canvas.
A car manufacturing company introduces many concept cars with weird designs, but they do not make those cars. Also, there are two types of movies a 'commercial film' that is specifically for business and a non-commercial film that doesn't care for business. Sometimes, if you ask from critics about a commercial film, maybe he gives only a two-star, but if you ask a non-commercial film from a critic, maybe he gives 5 stars but in the box office, it fails.
