Oobah Butler of fake shed restaurant fame is back and this time he’s turned his attention to the world of fashion. Paris Fashion week is iconic amongst A-Listers and fashion inner circles. It’s the place where you find all the next big trends, the crème de la crème of fashion weeks. Georgio Peviani was getting loads of attention at PFW.

Buyers from Milan wanted his denim in their stores, the inner-circle wanted him at their showrooms and A-Listers partied with him at night. But the man doesn’t actually exist.. does he? This is the time Oobah Butler faked his way into Paris Fashion Week.

WATCH NEXT: The Shed at Dulwich was the number one rated restaurant in London, but the main problem was that it didn’t exist – https://vice.video/2KbdNzI

  1. It’s all fake, we spend thousands of dollars just to fit in & wear clothes with dead guys names on it cause that’s what fashion is about, identity. If I’m wearing a birkin bag I don’t have to tell you I’m Rich or that I’m informed about fashion. You’ll just know by my bag, We dress according to who we want to be identified with and fit in with. How many brands have existed where someone made up a name marketed it amazingly and then sold it too millions of people.What is Gucci, What is Hermès, what is Chanel, they’re only cool because of million dollar marketing campaigns have sold us on their fantasy of fashion, on the dream of being apart of “the cool kids”

  2. 1:50 – I am not sure if we are being trolled here or whether it is a bone fide mistake. But he meant "haute couture" but instead said "horticulture" – which is basically gardening.

  3. I wonder if the larger part of these crazy results is due to the fact that he's got a cameraman trailing him, or if it's just the sheer confidence.

  4. Funny and intriguing, I'm curious exactly how successful the first time was because i am convinced having cameras on you was key to pulling it off to this scale, we don't see the types of cameras or crew with you but i can only assume it must of been/looked on the more professional side than just someone with a phone camera. Great entertaing watch.

  5. "Good evening, 47. Your destination is the Paris fashion show by Sanguine, one of Europe's leading couture brands. Your targets are Sanguine owner Viktor Novikov, a former oligarch turned fashion mogul, and his partner, Dalia Margolis, a retired supermodel. An iconic power couple on the global fashion scene, and two of the most dangerous people in the world.
