The Robot couture was an haute couture garment designed in 1995 by Thierry Mugler, which he crafted as a futuristic cyborg-inspired metal and perspex catsuit. The garment was first unveiled by the fashion house of Mugler at its 20th anniversary haute couture fashion show in 1995. Thierry Mugler designed what Vogue Runway described as a "Silvery Cyborg Getup", in collaboration with Mr. Pearl, Jean-Jacques Urcun, and Jean-Pierre Delcros. Modeled at its premier by Nadja Auermann, the garment was inspired by Hajime Sorayama's erotic robot art and the seminal 1927 science fiction film, Metropolis.
