Looks like Pac-Man helmets are hitting the runway in high fashion this season, available in Pac-Man, Blinky, and dark silver flavors. Not sure who the designer is, but if any of you find a follow-up video of these helmeted supermodels chasing each other around let me know!
Update: Thanks to Mike Jordan from the comments, we now know that this is the work of fashion designer Giles Deacon. Check out the full slideshow here. Thanks Mike!
Now if only they do Q-bert and have the Escher/illusion runway - that would ROCK!

That's a GREAT idea... someone should definitely do that. I'd be down for seeing some old-school Atari 8-bit styles show up on the runway at some point too... so much creative potential in all this nerdstuff!

Wow...alright then.
We're the helmets the things that were being presented?

I doubt it. I'm assuming it was some designer's idea to add them on as the eye-catching-blog-worthy accessory that would get the gamers talking... (like me)

Still, I would totally toss that on for a quick trip to the grocery store.
