High fashion, as described by many, is usually fashion designed by people who are quite unfashionably high on hallucinatory drugs. And the latest result of such high fashion has resulted in a modeling gig for Silent Hill‘s Pyramid Head, who clearly needs to get himself a better agent.

Kotaku has discovered the “Lookbook” for the 2009-10 fall and winter collection for “Odeur” – that’s French for smell and not “odor” as one would expect – that shows none other than our favorite Silent Hill bad guy in shitty jeans.

While the pictures and the fashion themselves beg for an explanation, I’m unable to provide one as I’m still flabbergasted by the ghastliness of such high fashion. I’m just fine in my tattered jeans and plain t-shirt, thank you.

Silent Hill: Homecoming represents an interesting new twist in the Silent Hill saga for several reasons, and I for one am glad for the ride.

Way back in the beginning, you were immersed in Silent Hill itself.  We got to see many prime locations like Midwich Elementary, and all those others that we came to know and fear.  The second Silent Hill took this basic approach and expanded on it, allowing you a glimpse into more of the terror surrounding this unobtrusive small town in the middle of nowhere.  And it continued like this until, for some reason, we reached the third one and the design began to unravel.  Indeed, it was as though we were watching the game series itself slip into its own dark side, where everything was clunky and jagged and rusty.  I don’t know about you, but I didn’t exactly get a huge terror buzz following the mallrat around in the third one, and the fourth one felt less like Silent Hill and more like a bad Japanese horror movie.  Playing Silent Hill 4: The Room left me screaming at my TV: “I thought this was Silent Hill, not I Can’t Leave My Apartment!” It was like hell for otakus, except in otaku hell, on the other side of that door are a hundred horny Sailor Venus cosplayers who are REALLY into fat guys who like anime.
