'Munster' Chic Hits the Paris Runways [PHOTOS]

Fashion critics eyeing the runways of Paris this week might declare the menswear collection displayed by designer Thom Browne a "munstrous" success.

The U.S. designer ended the famed fashion city's men's fashion week with a bang by sending his models down the catwalks in looks that recalled the "The Munsters" more than male models.

Browne's autumn/winter collection, said to be a preview of what men will be wearing in the months ahead, featured sharply tailored suits with bold prints, including argyle and tartans, in bright colors, as well as football socks, a three-legged suit and full-face masks.

And it was all worn by models sporting the Frankenstein-like make up, bulging limbs and broad shoulders made famous by the classic 1960s television series. Browne started his eponymous line in 2001 and remains based in New York.
