A spacewear fashion show featuring clothing designed for travel in weightless conditions was held at the University of Tokyo's Hongo campus on November 2.
I've only found these two pictures...

High heels? High heels? Holy christ, feet are useless enough in freefall without strapping a weapon onto them.
In zero G, flowing hair and draped fabrics are going to give 'fashion victim' a meaning it doesn't usually have.
I don't know, flowing fabric and hair are going to look fine in free-fall -- providing said victim can keep moving, or station themselves in front of the air-conditioner.
Not so fine if said victim has to get into a pressure suit or rescue ball, unless the couture is smart enough to become a pressure suit or rescue ball when need arises. Might need some kind of implant to keep the hair under control, too.
As a female, I just want to say that at first glance, the white outfit in the second picture looks like it was modeled after a maxi pad therefore instantly making the first pic's dresses look like tampons. I though it was all the designer's conceptual statement of... something.
No photos, but here are drawings.

I'm guessing that the designs with lots of loose material flapping around aren't going to do so well.
I notice a distinct lack of lasers, mirrors, and nudity. Worst space fashion show ever.
