Last week Cheetos made its runway debut at New York Fashion Week, and now 'condom dresses' are having their moment on the ramp. 

Created by designer Edwin Mohney, a graduate of Central Saint Martin's MA, these condom-inspired designs literally made the audience at the fashion week sit up and take note.

The designer also sent a walking condom down the runway, much to the surprise of his audience. 

These quirky designs were not only well-received on the ramp, they have become an instant hit on Instagram too.

The video of the walking condom has already garnered 4,00,000 views on the photo-sharing app.

Another star attraction of the show were the rubber Trumpetto stilettos designed to look like Donald Trump's head. 

The collection also had a recycled dress, inflatable swimming pools and prom dresses, nipple-inspired hats and bathtub dresses.
