I present to you, the Zooop
The Zooop, created by the fashion house Maison de Courrèges. The husband and wife team of André and Coqueline Courrèges who both were mentored and apprenticed with Cristóbal Balenciaga [fucking Balenciaga!!! Seriously!!!] are no strangers to the world of automotive engineering. This is their third developed car and have been dabbling the electric cars since the 60's when they introduced the world to the miniskirt.
This hopefully will spawn some great actual cars and not just concept cars. I love when design gets thrown for a loop by coming from unexpected places. I don't mean forced, needless wacky pairings to try to come up with something novel but passioned inspiration coming from unlikely sources like this.
