These are the ridiculous smartphone ankle holders spotted at a recent Maison Margiela fashion show with a theme that was supposed to explore futurism and technology (you did not nail it). They look perfect for filming your dog or your own underwear, but otherwise completely impractical. They’re like one of those gun ankle holsters, except the only thing you’ll be shooting is your mom a text to find out what time dinner will be ready. You know, I used to think high fashion was so ridiculous until my girlfriend made me watch The Devil Wears Prada. Now I want to be part of it.

Keep going for a couple closeups in case you’re not sure just how uncomfortably the holder attaches to the leg.
