Fetish fashion takes over the Berlin underground

BERLIN (REUTERS) - Riders of the Berlin subway have been taking trips this week that go far beyond the hip German capital's already outlandish standards, as models in latex wear, fetish gear and 'spirit hoods' staged a fashion show on a train.

Girls wearing all-leather sado-masochist bodysuits tottered through the train car, followed by male models wearing nothing but ornamental metallic sculptures around their groin.
Models in neon tulle dangled from the subway poles.
Around 600 people showed up for Underground Catwalk, a ticketed show during Berlin Fashion Week that took place entirely on a train running underneath the city.
