Videos of the machines flying down the runway have appeared online and we were as shocked as the audience in the front row looked. The drones opened the show by flying the labels latest collection of handbags down the runway but were nearly an hour late to start the show due to technical difficulties.Models are SO last season!

Apparently, the audience was interfering with the WiFi connection in the space and D&G staff had trouble getting the drones to even work. An hour later, and after asking the audience to turn off their WiFi and hotspots, the show began. So, while it might not have gone perfectly to plan, audience members left praising the exhibition.Dolce & Gabbana uses drones in place of Models on the runway to model latest handbags. ?? pic.twitter.com/Or6pmiAiSx

Lol. I think people go to the show to see people. This is like like going to a concert to see a human perform and they have an mp3 payer on stage. Humans are a key part of people going to see anything. Otherwise they'd go to the store to window shop. Failed concept.
