This fashion boner was no accident.
Raf Simons is the latest designer to go phallic, creating a coat with a Robert Mapplethorpe photo of an erect penis on the back, Esquire reports.
The jacket made its debut Thursday during Simons’ spring 2017 show at the Pitti Uomo menswear event in Florence, Italy, according to Complex.
It looks all innocent from the front ...
... but from the back, not so much.

Not to diss Mapplethorpe’s artistic cachet, but we’re trying to figure out the right occasion for this — ballgame? school? job interview? — and coming up a tad short.
Peen has made the scene on other runways recently. Earlier this year, Vivienne Westwood adorned her models with silver and gold penis necklaces. And in early 2015, Rick Owens sent models down the runway in junk-exposing cloaks.
