胸甲自十四世紀起便點綴著戰場,但直到 1969 年,它們才首度登上時裝天橋。以 Yves Saint Laurent 率先示範,這位擁有四十年職業生涯的設計師,始終致力於從藝術作品中汲取靈感。在 1969 年秋季高訂系列中,Yves Saint Laurent 邀請雕塑家 Claude Lalanne,將雕塑與時裝合而為一兩位模特兒走在天橋上,身上穿的是以她們身體為模具製成的胸甲。

自那以後,設計師們紛紛交出自己對胸甲的詮釋:仿盔甲複製品、精雕細琢的腹肌與豐滿的胸部線條,以及光滑而硬挺的緊身胸衣。

在 Saint Laurent 之後的幾十年間,胸甲始終備受歡迎:Thierry Mugler 是這股風格的著名擁護者,1980 年他讓 Jerry Hall 穿上緊身胸衣配飄逸長裙;2022 年,Jonathan Anderson 在 Loewe 提供了多種演繹——從肌肉猛男的腹肌到鍍金有機雕塑。但或許沒有誰比 Alexander McQueen 更熱衷於頌揚身體的線條,他在 Givenchy 及個人品牌的眾多系列中,運用了各式各樣的胸甲。

儘管胸甲並非街頭穿搭的必備單品,但依然能吸引不少前衛的名人進行詮釋。Zendaya 在 2020 年評論家選擇獎上穿著 Tom Ford 的洋紅色雕塑連身裙;Rihanna 在超級盃舞台上則穿著另一件 Loewe by Jonathan Anderson 的作品。就在剛過去的週末,Greta Lee 出席 2026 年 SFFILM 電影節開幕之夜時,身穿 Issey Miyake 的亮面紅褐色胸衣。從 Issey Miyake 等老牌擁護者到 Grace Ling 等新銳人才,胸甲在天橋上始終人氣不減。

今年,2026 年 Met Gala 以「時尚即藝術 Fashion is Art」為主題,將時尚置於與美術同等崇高的地位。胸甲作為時尚與雕塑的混合體,恰好提醒我們:兩者之間的連結,遠比我們想像的更為緊密。以下,一起回顧 1969 年至 2026 年間曾在天橋上亮相的胸甲造型。
