【Naked Poison II (2002)】

If Elon Musk's future is Naked Poison II (2002)all about Mars, well, we're already there. 

At least, when it comes to fashion, the unofficial dossier of history.  

As it's been known for decades, the runways have been a purveyor of culture, translating societal trends onto blank canvasses, documenting history through clothing.

For instance, the military-inspired coats and jackets that are in our present-day repertoires like the pea, trench or parka, for example, were born out of World War II. Coco Chanel created her own version of female trousers as a subtle protest. Even in our present-day we see politics play into dress. Hillary Clinton and her Ralph Lauren dress pants? Politicians wearing blue when they concede? What about the breast-baring outfits that are now du moment, thanks to the response of the Free the Nipple movement, one that's gained steam in the past few years?

So, if Musk was abreast of the latest trends, he'd know that fashion is in an intergalactic period and we're already on another planet. We are inspired by the constellations, the expansive universe and yes, planets like Mars. 

Musk need only look at this year's Met Gala to recognize this. It was impossible to miss this year's tech-inspired theme. There was Taylor Swift in a metallic Louis Vuitton number.

Zayn Malik and his cyborg arms. The Smith siblings: Jaden and Willow, who both looked as if they teleported from another galaxy. All were on-trend with spring 2016's biggest inspiration: space.

Loewe had models walk in trousers that resembled shards of glass stitched together. The girls were intergalactic sleuths who glided along a runway that resembled the moon.

Isabel Marant was more literal, with looks that resembled space suits. With foil-like fabrics, each of the French house's models looked like space cadets floating in zero gravity, their suits chicly hanging off their bodies.

Though adamant about his plans for a manned mission to Mars, Musk did admit he wasn't quite ready to lift off forevermore. 

"Why would we abandon Earth? It's very nice here," he said.

The clothes, too.
