It goes without saying that much of what comes down the fashion runway is more conceptual than practical. Granted, this is usually a women's haute couture phenomenon, but menswear is not immune to the problem of the "big idea" at the expense of wearability. For example, Spanish designer Isabel Matache's Men's Fall/Winter 2010 show during Madrid Fashion Week is certainly a hard act to follow. With references to both India and Central Europe, Matache showed elaborate, if unwearable, headdresses, boxy blazers, and trousers that... ahem... leave very little to the imagination.

While we doubt that Matache's penis pants will translate from the runway to your local department store, they certainly offer an eyeful to the casual observer and even the most oblivious among us. The flat-front trousers in winter white seem to wear well and move elegantly with their wearer, but it's that generous "cut" in the front that garners all the attention. However, we have one question. Since most men's fashion is ready to wear, are these pants "one size fits all" or "made to measure"? Either way, taking someone's inseam has never been so much fun. This fashion trend could certainly catch on in boardrooms, bedrooms, backrooms, the Jersey Shore, and, of course, the golf course. Watch a video of Matache's entire show below.
